The Broadcasting Organisations of Nigeria (BON) has identified poor electricity supply, the incessant collapse of the national grid as well as high cost of procuring diesel and Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) as factors responsible for stifling the performance of Broadcast stations in the country.

Besides, BON said the dwindling advertising budget of advertisers and non-payment of outstanding debt is militating against the optimal performance of broadcasting stations in the country.

“Federal government should deploy necessary funds to the National Broadcasting Commission to enable it to implement digitisation programmes that will benefit stakeholders in particular and the general public in general.
