Voice of Nigeria

VOICE OF NIGERIA (VON) came into existence in 1961 as the External Service of the then Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) which later became the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN).  Given the importance attached to external broadcasting the late Prime Minister, Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa commissioned a 10KW HF transmitter which broadcast programmes for two hours a day.  The broadcast was mainly targeted at West Africa in English and French languages.  In 1962, two years into its operation – its relevance became more registered as 40 hectares of land was acquired by the Government at Ipakodo, Ikorodu for a befitting transmitting station for an external broadcasting service.  Five prototype RCA 100KW HF transmitters were installed and commissioned in 1963.
