The government also warned media organisations based in the state, to desist from conducting or airing any radio or television programme without the approval of the Ministry of Information.

In a statement on Friday, the State’s Commissioner of information, Mannir Haidara, said the information ministry was highly committed to observing and monitoring all radio stations for compliance.

The statement read: “The Zamfara State government has observed with dismay the attitudes of some individuals, political groups and heads of MDAs towards conducting radio, television stations and social media platforms interviews and programmes on state government’s policies and programmes without following the right channels.

“In an effort to checkmate the unwanted behaviour, the Zamfara State Ministry of Information and Culture hereby announce that henceforth no political office holder, group or head of any agency is allowed to conduct any interview, issue statement or air a programme on radio, television stations or social media without seeking a permission from the authority.”
