A Nigeria-based firm, Inview Technology Nigeria Limited, the software middleware partner for the National Broadcasting Commission, NBC, common standard set top boxes that will enable customers access the free-to-view platforms created by Digital Switchover, DSO, has thrown its weight behind the ongoing Federal Government’s anti graft war being prosecuted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
In a statement signed by the company’s Chairman, Nick Markham, he said, “Inview Technology Nigeria Limited (‘Inview’) is proud to be supporting the Nigerian government in the Digital Switch Over (‘DSO’) Programme, and is committed to helping the NBC deliver a whole range of free digital channels to the Nigerian population.”
He stated that, “To ensure that the DSO programme is managed correctly, Inview respects and supports the EFCC’s work investigating payments relating to DSO. As part of the EFCC’s investigation, allegations have been made in the press concerning actions that the Inview CEO, Babatunji Amure may have taken.”
“Inview has taken these allegations very seriously and has held extensive discussions with the EFCC Senior Investigating Officer, who has confirmed that Inview is not accused of any involvement in this matter.
“The EFCC have confirmed that in fact the allegations relate to Mr Amure’s role as CEO of D-Vine and therefore any actions Mr. Amure may have taken would have been wholly outside the scope of his employment with Inview.
“The EFCC has also confirmed that the investigation has no impact on Inview’s work with the Nigerian Government concerning DSO. Inview will continue to support and assist the EFCC during these investigations,” the statement read.
