General Mutale says the suspension has been done under section 29 (1) of the IBA Amendment Act of 2010 which provides that the Board may cancel a broadcasting license if the cancellation of the license is necessary in the interest of public safety, security, peace welfare or good order.
He states that during before and after the August 11th elections, Muvi TV, Komboni and Itezhi- Tezhi radio stations have been conducting themselves in an unprofessional manner contrary to the provisions of the IBA Act.
And Speaking at the same briefing, IBA Director General Josephine Mapoma allayed assertions that the reason for the suspension of the three broadcasting station is because they are perceived to be anti-government.
She says government t has no hand in the suspension of the licenses for the three broadcasting stations.
Ms. Mapoma adds the three broadcasting stations have 14 days to address the issues raised.
So disappointed with these animals so called ____________
just tell the truth that you are working on instructions from somewhere but what I can assure you is that God is watching. ZNBC is worse than MUVI but allowed to serve the interest of the ruling party at the expense of Tax payers money and you do nothing because you must serve your masters above. Don’t take the Zambian people for granted thinking you can decide on your own in those small boardrooms.
