The National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) has given foreign broadcasters beaming their signals with offices domiciled in Nigeria to register within 30 days.

The commission also urged Internet Protocol Television as well as others streaming online to register with the commission in order to avoid disconnection and prosecution.

The NBC Director-General, Balarabe Ilelah, issued the warning during the presentation of newly approved licences to 67 broadcast outfits in Abuja on Friday.
