After Arise TV alleged that they received secret calls from top members of the All Progressives Congress, APC, campaign organization to sack its presenter, Rufai Oseni, reactions have continued to trail the call.
The station, however, in response, stated that it does not fire journalists because of their views.
It noted that it allows its editors ‘the freedom to air their opinions unfettered and have created The Office of the Ombudsman to take any complaints and discipline any abuse of office by any of our staff members.’
In reaction, Nigerians have expressed shock that the APC could call for the sack of a journalist, wondering what their presidential candidate would do if he eventually becomes president.
