The facility housing Atlantic TV and Wish 99.5 FM in the Ozuoba area of Port Harcourt was reportedly attacked with dynamite, Improvised Explosive Devices, and ammunition at about 8:45 pm on Tuesday.
Confirming the incident via phone call, the owner of the outfit, Chinyere Igwe, who is also a member of the House of Representatives, said the generator house was damaged by the explosion.
