The Director General of the National Broadcasting Commission, NBC, Ishaq Kawu. [Photo credit: THISDAYLIVE]The embattled head of Nigeria’s broadcast regulator, NBC, is being investigated on fresh allegations of corruption, PREMIUM TIMES has learnt.
The anti-graft agency, ICPC, on Thursday, questioned Modibbo Kawu the Director-General of National Broadcasting Commission, for his alleged roles in the scandal. Sources at the ICPC told PREMIUM TIMES that Mr Kawu was at the commission for over five hours from about 10 a.m. during which period he was questioned by investigators.
One source said Mr Kawu is being investigated for allegedly giving broadcast licenses to a company he has interest in.“He claimed he did no wrong by awarding his company multiple licenses,” a source at the commission said. “He has been told to report back on Monday the 15th.” When contacted, the ICPC spokesperson, Raheedat Okoduwa, on Friday, confirmed the new development to PREMIUM TIMES.Mrs Okoduwa said the ICPC “is investigating something else different from his ongoing trial in court.””I can confirm he was here yesterday and he was asked to come back on Monday, she said. “But he was invited on something different from what is in court. I am not at liberty to tell you the subject of the investigation.

PT says Lai Mohammed had admitted in a PREMIUM TIMES exclusive in April that he did not follow due diligence before signing off on a controversial N2.5 billion payment to a private digital broadcast signal distributor. A big LIE, he never admitted it. PT show proof
The real question is why is PT times being paid to destroy the dg of NBC. ICPC leaked this to you again with no evidence of wrong doing. ICPC is the worst agency in Nigeria, always losing in court so they run to the media.
How he is still in office would be a thesis in a PhD corruption class
