Rivers PDP Chairman congratulate party on wining polls

By -
The Chairman of the Rivers State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Mr Felix Obuah, has congratulated all the three senatorial and 12 House of Representatives candidates, who contested Saturday’s election on the platform of the party on their overwhelming victory at the polls.
Describing the victory as well deserved, the state party chairman said the landslide victory by the PDP has vindicated the party that the state is a PDP State.
Prince Obuah is particularly happy that the state is already on the way of reclaiming its stolen mandate from the outgoing Governor Rotimi Amaechi administration.
Obuah expressed hope that the same feat will be repeated on April 11, governorship and state House of Assembly elections.
He thanked the Rivers people for their understanding and support and urged them to continue to support the PDP by coming out en-masse for the governorship election and casting their votes for Chief Nyesom Wike and all PDP candidates for the State House of Assembly.
He prayed God to crown the victory recorded so far by seeing President Goodluck Jonathan through in the Presidential election.

(Nigeria) The National Broadcasting Commission, NBC, has been restrained by a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, from imposing fines on broadcast stations in the country. Trial judge in the matter, Justice James Omotosho also set aside the N500,000 fines imposed on March 1, 2019, on each of 45 broadcast stations. The court made the orders in its judgment a suit by the Incorporated Trustees of Media Rights Agenda, MRA, which had sued the NBC. Justice Omotosho held that the NBC, not being a court of law, had no power to impose sanctions as punishment on broadcast stations. The court further held that the Nigeria Broadcasting Code, which gives the commission the power to impose sanction, is in conflict with Section 6 of the Constitution that vested judicial power in the court of law.
