(RSF/IFEX) – A lower court in Lomé has withdrawn an order that kept two radio stations off the air for the past two weeks. Radio Nana FM manager Peter Dogbé and Radio Kanal FM manager Modeste Mesavusu-Ekué said their stations were able to resume broadcasting on 24 February 2005. The only other radio station that was still closed, Radio Lumière, in the town of Aného, east of Lomé, was permitted to resume broadcasting the same afternoon. The station had to use rented equipment, however, because its own equipment, which had been confiscated, was returned in very poor condition, manager Kossigan Zinsou said.
