The National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) has revoked the broadcast licenses of Silverbird TV, AIT, Raypower FM, and Rhythm FM amongst others over failure to renew their broadcast licenses.

Director General of the NBC Mallam Balarabe Shehu also directed its state offices to liaise with security agencies to ensure the shut down of the operation of these stations within the next 24 hours. The stations owe NBC N2.66 billion.

The media houses are owned by prominent Nigerians Raymond Dopkesi and former senator Ben Murray Bruce.
