“We don’t have any radio station anywhere and since the PDP is the one making such allegations they may perhaps be privy to what others don’t know,” the spokesman of the party, Mr Lai Mohammed, told Channels Televisions on Friday.

The Director General of the President Goodluck Jonathan Campaign Organisation, Mr Femi Fani Kayode, had asked the Nigerian Broadcasting Commission to stop the ‘illegal operations’ of APC radio, which he accused the opposition party of running.

At a press conference in Abuja on March 19, Mr Fani Kayode alleged that the station’s focus was to incite Nigerians against the Federal Government.

He accused the former Ekiti State Governor, Kayode Fayemi and the APC leader, Bola Tinubu, of being the brains behind the APC radio.

But Mr Mohammed stressed that it was the responsibility of the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) to track illegal radio stations in Nigeria.

“Since the National Broadcasting Commission is an organisation of the Federal Government it should be able to track such radio stations and tell Nigerians where it is located,”  he said.

The party, however, said the radio station allegation was a distraction the PDP was peddling to run away from issues.

“It is a clear show of jitters about its imminent loss in the March 28 elections,” Mr Mohammed said.

The PDP had asked the NBC to set its house in order while ensuring that its rules are followed. It requested that the Commission should use all means available to stop the illegal radio from operating and if necessary block its illegal operations.

“The objective of the radio station is to serve as a propaganda tool to fight the PDP-led government after the APC loses the elections on March 28,” Fani-Kayode told reporters.
