The operation licence for Badegi Radio station’s operation has been immediately revoked by Governor Umaru Bago of the Niger State.
The Hauwa Wali Multipurpose Hall in Government House, Minnesota, where the All Progressives Congress (APC) Caucus met for an expanded meeting, Bago issued the order.
The governor accused the privately held station of consistently using its broadcasts to foment public animosity toward the state government.

According to him, this behavior was intentional in an effort to destabilize the New Niger Development Agenda’s efforts.
“Badegi Radio’s activities are obviously against the rules of journalism.” The governor claimed at the high-level meeting, which brought together party representatives, elected officials, and political leaders from all the 25 local government areas, that they are misleading the public, creating unnecessary tension, and advancing this state.
Governor Bago emphasized that while his administration supports press freedom, it must not be taken advantage of to harm state peace, development, and good governance.
In the run-up to the upcoming local government elections, his directive is a result of ongoing efforts to foster better communication between the government and the populace.
