Gulf News Broadcasting (GNB), the radio arm of Gulf News, has announced the closure of its Radio 1 and Radio 2 stations. We hear, however, that its two other radio stations, Hayat FM and Josh FM, are still on air. Twenty nine employees related to these two stations have, as a result, been laid off, according to inside sources.
Earlier today, Gulf News issued a statement on its web site stating that the interruptions on the radio stations were temporary. However, it has now confirmed on its web site that with immediate effect it will no longer be managing the Radio One & Radio Two stations.
This is as a result of unforeseen circumstances, which are beyond the control of Gulf News Broadcasting LLC.
Gulf News Broadcasting LLC would like to thank all its employees, advertising partners and supporters for their contribution, effort and commitment for the successful management of Radio One & Radio Two stations over the last 10 years.
No further comment will be made.
