The Chairman of AIT, Dr Raymond Aleogho Dokpesi
sacked two senior editorial staff, Gbenga Aruleba and Imoni Amarere over the
interview of Mr. Richard Akinnola, frontline social critic and human rights
activist with Aruleba on AIT two days ago on the acquittal of Major Hamza Al
Mustapha where Mr. Akinnola strongly condemned the 'miscarriage of justice' of
the judgment as a political judgment to pacify the North ahead of 2015 general
elections.
From a reliable source, Chief Dokpesi threw caution to the wind as he stormed the studio even when the bulletin was still on and stopped the bulletin after which he lambasted Aruleba over this controversial interview which he said was in bad taste.
Sadly, Dokpesi followed this up yesterday evening by sacking Aruleba and Amarere, both are well-trained,talented and experienced broadcasters, their sack was announced in the 8pm news bulletin of last night.
