Salient Contemporary Issues in Broadcasting: Legislative/Regulatory Reforms in Nigeria highlight the urgent need for reform in Nigeria’s broadcasting sector and proposes comprehensive solutions.
The 1992 National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) Act, which was amended in 1999, did not fully address the gaps in the law, leading to concerns about the performance of industry players and the regulator during the 2019 general elections. In response, a government-constituted reform committee made recommendations that were approved by the government.
The handbook explains these recommendations and the critical issues waiting to be addressed in the reform process.
