Nahon said the broadcaster had received no further news about its journalists following information on Friday that they were being treated well and were in good health.
There has been no claim of responsibility for the kidnapping but a colleague of the two journalists, who were snatched with three Afghan assistants on Wednesday, has blamed the Taliban militia.
The group was abducted while going to meet a contact 60 kilometres (40 miles) from the Afghan capital, according to the French colleague.
Criminal groups and Taliban insurgents have kidnapped several dozen foreigners, many of them journalists, since the 2001 US-led invasion ousted the Taliban regime in Kabul, sparking the current insurgency.
