Radio Wewak off air

This means that there is a blackout in all forms of broadcasting of the 2017 National Election in East Sepik, the home of Grand Chief Sir Michael Thomas Somare.

East Sepik Director Provincial Radio, Anna Klawe, said her station went off air the following Thursday after continuous power blackouts in Wewak town, causing damage to its Satellite Transmission Link.
