He wondered why the broadcast regulatory body has yet to issue any sanction, alleging a double standard.
Recall that the now suspended Hudu Yunusa Ari, the Resident Electoral Commissioner, (REC) Adamawa State, illegally decalared Binani winner of the State election on Sunday.
The illegal declaration was covered by the NTA, a government-owned media outfit.
However, the electoral commission swiftly denounced the purported declaration and suspended the collation of results of the supplementary election.
