Nigeria Police now have Radio and Television Stations

The Nigeria Police Force has established a national broadcasting and radio service that will serve the entire nation, from the perspective of security.

The broadcasting service will be managed by the Nigeria Police Broadcasting Service Limited (NPBS), a company jointly owned by the police and a private entity.

Sources familiar with the development at the police force headquarters in Abuja said the news and current affairs station will have operational bases in all the states and the FCT, and will be jointly funded by the force and private investors, who are behind Skytick Limited.

The force has filed paperwork for a broadcasting license with National Broadcasting Commission.

The police channels when operational will help Nigeria police and security agencies communicate effectively with the general public and improve policing in our societies.

If I make ask, what is the essence of this radio and tv stations?
