Nigerian Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) has declared a Not-To-Be-Broadcast (NTTB) warning on Olamide‘s latest hot single “Science Student“.

The warning has been issued to all radio and television stations over the week.

According to popular Nigerian newspaper Tribune, NBC’s Head of Public Affairs Hajia Maimuna has revealed that the song was not out-rightly banned but prohibited from being played on local stations for public consumption.

She said:-

NBC does not ban music. Our mandate is on what goes on Radio and TV. Olamide’s Science Student has been declared ‘Unfit for broadcast’.

‘We have communicated all our licensees for compliance or they will face sanctions

She further went on to mention that the song’s subtle promotion of illegal drugs was the main reason for declaring it unlawful as she issued a stern warning to all broadcasting houses.
