The Commissioner of Police, Abia State Command, Mr. Joshak Habila, has said the force is depending on members of the public for information on the location of Radio Biafra.

He also said there is an agency of the Federal Government that is responsible for clamping down on frequencies of illegal radio stations.

Joshak, who said this in an exclusive interview with our correspondent in Umuahia on Saturday, said the police alone could not track down the radio station without useful information from members of the public.

He said, “There are those responsible for tracking down operators of unapproved radio frequencies. Police do have some roles to play but I don’t think the police are the ones that will be able to jam the frequency.

“There is an agency of government responsible for that. I think members of the public have a better role to play in volunteering information to security agencies to clamp down on the radio station.

“I think it is the duty of everyone to help trace them because if they exist they don’t exist in the blues. They exist among members of the public. Thus, it is those who reside around here that should be able to volunteer information.

“The indigenous people of Biafra are said to be the people operating the Radio Biafra. We are gathering information but you should know that they are subversive and have also spoken against constituted authorities.”

While Joshak described the activities of the guerrilla radio as “a very big issue to be decided by the Inspector General of Police, he stated that the law was very clear about those who engaged in subversive activities to run down a nation and how they should be handled under the justice system.

Radio Biafra, which broadcasts on the FM frequency, has continued to freely operate despite recent claims by the Nigerian Communication Commission that it had jammed its frequency.

The radio station is said to be gaining more audience in Aba, Port Harcourt and Enugu where its signals are very strong.
