The Nigerian Guild of Editors, NGE, has condemned the recent order for the closure of Badeggi Radio by Governor Mohammed Umar Bago of Niger State.
In a statement signed by Eze Anaba, President, and Onuoha Ukeh, General Secretary, the Guild described the action as a blatant attack on press freedom and democracy in Nigeria.
“This act of censorship and intimidation undermines the fundamental principles of a democratic society, where free press is essential for holding those in power accountable.”
