The Minister of
Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has directed the National
Broadcasting Commission (NBC) to investigate the circumstances surrounding the
reported shooting in South Africa of the ongoing Big Brother Nigeria Reality
Show.
In a statement in Abuja on
Tuesday, signed by Segun Adeyemi, SA to Hon Minister of Information and Culture,
the Minister said the NBC should determine
whether Multi-Choice, by shooting the show in South Africa, has breached the
Nigerian Broadcasting Code in any way, as well as the issue of possible deceit,
since the viewing public was never told that the event would be staged outside
Nigeria.
''As a country of laws,
only the outcome of the investigation will determine our next line of action,''
he said.
Alhaji Mohammed said while
concerned Nigerians have bombarded his office with calls to complain about what
they regard as an anomaly (of shooting outside the country a show meant for
Nigerians), they should remain calm while the NBC investigates the issue and
submits its findings.
