GIST : Nigerian Broadcasting Commission (NBC)- We Did Not Ban Wande Coal's "Go Low" Video

It was reported last week that the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission banned Wande Coal's Go Low video. The NBC responds to the report as absolutely false and void.

An NBC spokesperson spoke to Nigerian
Entertainment Today about the rumour being false and that the commission only advised terrestrial broadcast stations that they should edit musical videos before they make use of it.

"We have no issues with the lyrics; the issue is with the video clip and just a tiny part of it.

The advice is to edit that part before use on broadcasting station", Francisca Aiyetan a rep from the Broadcast Content and Zonal Coordination of the commission told NET

"It is Important that we are extra careful with programmes on terrestrial free-to-air stations because, viewers at home receive the signals of these stations without soliciting for them.

These stations, more or less barge into the privacy (homes) of their viewers, with children (impressionable) watching unfettered", she explained.
