The Minister of State in the Nigerian Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Dr. Mariya Mahmoud, has charged the management of Nigeria Television Authority Channel 5, to explore new opportunities for collaboration, especially in the areas of security and flooding.
The minister gave this charge when the management staff of the station paid a courtesy visit to her office.
She noted that residents in hard-to-reach communities should be well informed about the impact of flooding and security challenges in recent times.
Dr Mahmoud expressed appreciation for the robust relationship the administration has enjoyed with the Nigeria Television Authority (NTA), noting that the station has continued to provide quality information in the media landscape.
According to her; “First, I want to express our sincere appreciation for the enduring relationship we have enjoyed with the Nigeria Television Authority (NTA), the largest network in Africa.
“To state the obvious, the NTA has continued to provide quality information in the media landscape and we are truly grateful for your service to our residents at the grassroots.

“Let me assure you that as we look towards the future, we are keen to further strengthen our relationship and explore new opportunities for collaboration, especially in the areas of security and flooding”.
