Sokoto State Government has said it has asked the Federal Government to suspend its telecoms blockade on 14 Local Government Areas of the State.
A statement signed by the Governor’s Spokesman, Muhannad Bello disclosed that the rescinding of the blockade became necessary in view of concerns expressed by security outfits in the state that the outage was affecting the smooth conduct of their works.
The statement revealed that the state government has already forwarded a letter to the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Pantani to review the internet blockade.
