The
leadership of the Nigeria Police Force has reportedly floated TV and
radio stations to aid the dissemination of information to the general
public.
The Nigeria Police Force has established a national broadcasting television and radio service that will serve the entire nation.
The broadcasting service will be managed by the Nigeria Police
Broadcasting Service Limited (NPBS), a company jointly owned by the
police and a private entity, according to documents seen by THEWILL on
Wednesday.
Sources familiar with the development at the police force
headquarters in Abuja told the medium that the news and current affairs
station will have operational bases in all the states of the federation
and the FCT, and will be jointly funded by the force and private
investors, who are behind Skytick Limited.
The force has filed paperwork for a broadcasting license with the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC), it was gathered.
The police channels when operational will help the police force as
well as security agencies communicate effectively with the general
public and improve policing in our societies, one source said.
