A popular radio station in Abia, Enyimba 94.3fm, and its sister stations, Legend 98.3fm, and Rose 101.9fm Aba have shut down operations following attack by arsonists on Saturday, ABN TV reports.

The management in a statement on Sunday said the stations were targeted for fire attacks.

It said the staff members were unhurt arising from the incident which happened the same day local government elections were held across the 17 local government areas in Abia.

“As a way of exercising caution, we have made the difficult decision to temporarily shut down operations across all three stations.
