Transmission equipment of Radio Nigeria’s Prime 101.5FM Jimgbe in Kogi State has been stolen by armed robbers.
As a result, the station has gone off air.
Quoting the General Manager of the Station, Momoh-Jimoh Adeiza, Kogi Reports, a local publication, said the incident happened in the early hours of Saturday. 
This is a major attack on the station. We are currently off air because our equipment has been stolen by armed criminals. When they came, they tied up our security man on duty to carry out their nefarious activities. Where do we go from here now?”
“I am calling on security agencies to double their efforts in apprehending those criminals who have carried out this grievous crime. I have communicated with our zonal director on this sad development,” he said.
Adeiza, however, called on the relevant authorities to come to the aid of the station so that it can come back on air.
Narrating his ordeal with the suspected criminals, the security man on duty, identified as Daniel Haruna, said the robbers were armed with dangerous weapons such as guns, cutlasses, adding that they moved away with copper parts of the feeder lines, 22 pieces of modules, armoured cables, generator batteries, and many more.
