Sun newspaper has returned the 9 million naira compensation it received from the National Security Adviser through the Newspaper Proprietors Association of Nigeria (NPAN) to the federal government.
The newspaper, in a statement signed by the managing director/editor-in- chief, Eric Osagie, said it took the decision to return the money following the controversy the saga generated.
The NSA paid N120 million as compensation to newspaper companies for the unlawful seizure of their newspapers and stoppage of circulation by armed soldiers in several cities across the country in June 2014 to NPAN.
