Police, DSS ‘lay siege’ to AIT, Raypower hours after reopening

Policemen and operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) are currently laying siege to the head office of DAAR Communications in Asokoro, Abuja.

Tony Akiotu, group managing director of DAAR Communications, disclosed this in a message sent to TheCable on Saturday morning.

Akiotu said heavily armed security operatives gathered around the station premises at 12:30am on Saturday.

The development comes less than 12 hours after AIT and Raypower FM went back on airfollowing a court order.

The National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) had shut the stations on Thursday over what it described as breach of its rules.

But on Friday, Inyang Ekwo, judge of a federal high court in Abuja, ordered reopening of the stations.

He also summoned NBC and the ministry of information and explain why the motion challenging the commission should not be granted.

DAAR Communications had filed an ex parte motion before the NBC suspended its operations.

Akiotu said the stations resumed operations in line with the directive of the court.
