Former Minister of Aviation Femi Fani-Kayode has reacted to the indefinite suspension of broadcasting rights of African Independent Television (AIT) and Ray Power.
The Director General of the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC), Modibbo Kawu, announced the suspension on Thursday.
Reacting in a post on Twitter, Fani-Kayode stated that some people laughed at him when media organisations stopped airing his interviews and publishing his articles.
He wrote:
“The Presidency compelled Premium Times, The Sun Nigeria, New Telegraph, Legit News and others to stop publishing my articles and columns.
“They also used NBC to compel AIT, Channels TV, AriseTV and other TV stations not to air my interviews or allow me to speak.
“Some people laughed at me then but with what has happened to AIT I guess they are not laughing anymore!
“When you silently watch others suffering persecution for speaking truth know that it will eventually come to you.
“An injustice to one is an injustice to all!
“Those who walk with or appease tigers and tyrants always end up in their stomachs!”
