The operators of pirate Radio Biafra have said the station is alive and kicking, contradicting Nigeria’s government for claiming that it has jammed its transmission .

Dr Yemi Folasade-Esan, the Permanent Secretary in the Federal Ministry of Information, stated this while speaking with State House correspondents after she had briefed President Muhammadu Buhari on the activities of the ministry.

“We also gave a report on (Radio Biafra) that because right now the signals from Radio Biafra have been jammed. The National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) has successfully jammed that. The NBC is also working with security operatives to get those that are behind that radio because it is an illegal radio.

“It is not licensed by anybody to be on Nigeria’s airwaves,” she said.

But in a swift response, the ‘illegal radio station’ said in a tweet @radiobiafralive that its signals are live in ‘Biafraland’.

“Radio Biafra is live in BiafraLand. They cannot even ban our local station, do they even know we also transmit via satellite and online as well? Have you seen why we call Nigerians baboons and monkeys, it’s because they are incapable of reasoning,” said the operators of the station at the website: http://www.thebiafraherald.co/2015/07/radio-biafra-is-live-in-biafra-land-nbc.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter
