The government has reportedly shut down two radio stations affiliated with the opposition New Patriotic Party: Wontumi FM and Asaase Radio.
The shutdown of the two radio stations follows the National Communications Authority's (NCA) directive for the immediate suspension of operations of more than 60 FM broadcasting stations across the country.
Even though the government did not share a list of the media houses which have been shut down, reports by several media houses have corroborated the report of the NCA authorised shutdown.
The reports indicated that 62 FM radio stations, including Wontumi FM and Asaase Radio, have been shut down for failing to comply with broadcasting regulations.
