The Minister for Communications, Digital Technology, and Innovations, Samuel Nartey George, has disclosed that 57 radio stations could have their frequencies suspended for violating regulations.
According to the minister, the suspension is intended to provide the media organisations an opportunity to rectify their regulatory breaches before resuming operations.
Samuel Nartey George revealed this to journalists on Monday, March 24, 2025.
“The other six stations are a part of a total number of about 63 radio stations whose frequencies are not going to be revoked but are going to be suspended. We suspended the first six because we cannot have a situation where media houses would flout the regulation and say that because of press freedoms, the conditions for their licences will not be met.
“I will be suspending the licences, offering them the opportunity to remedy the anomaly in their cases. The six that were affected in the first phase, three of them have indicated to us and brought to the regulator the documentation required for the restoration of their frequencies, and I will be authorising the restoration of their frequencies.”
