The Federal Government has said that it will sanction the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) and Daily Trust Newspaper over their documentaries on terrorism and banditry in Nigeria.
The Minister of Information and culture, Mr. Lai Muhammed, while disclosing this in Abuja on Thursday said that the media organisation will not get away with what he described as naked glorification of terrorism and banditry in Nigeria.
“When otherwise reputable platforms like BBC give their platform to terrorists, showing their faces as if they’re Nollywood stars… I want to assure them that they won’t get away with it, the appropriate sanctions will be meted,” he said.
