2007-01-17
(SomaliNet) The transitional federal government Tuesday has agreed to reopen three FM stations and Al-Jazeera TV office in the capital after hours of close doors meeting with its administrators. Shortly after the government acceptance all three broadcasters began to air their regular programs and continued normal activities.

The National Security Agency officers in Mogadishu had intensive meeting with directors of Shabelle Radio, Horn Afrik Radio and TV, IQK Radio and Al-Jazeera office discussing over how their stations would speed up the awareness of introducing peace and security in the Somalia capita and throughout the country. “We have been told to stop broadcasting the sensitive reports that might damage the peace and stability and urged to encourage activities of establishing peace and security,” Mohamed Amin, the deputy director of Shabelle Media Network told Somalinet after the meeting.

Amin said the NSA offices dealt in good manner telling us the best way to promote peace in the country and avoid anything that might cause sensitivity. No conditions have been set before the officials of the independent media stations.
