Igbokwe’s remark followed a drama that ensued between the Minister of Works, David Umahi and Rufai during an interview on The Morning Show on Monday.
Joe Igbokwe, a Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC has taken to Facebook to vow never to go to Arise Television for an interview.
According to him, he will only go to the station for interview only when one of the TV’s presenters and show host, Rufai Oseni, is sacked.
Igbokwe’s remark followed a drama that ensued between the Minister of Works, David Umahi and Rufai during an interview on The Morning Show on Monday.
According to a trending video, the minister, who was furious over some questions that were put out to him by Rufai regarding the Lagos-Calabar Coastal Road, asked the show host to keep quiet.
Umahi claimed he is a professor in the field of engineering and has vast knowledge regarding the federal government projects.
But Rufai became inquisitive and demanded to know the year the minister became a professor.
Reacting to the drama, Igbokwe in a Facebook post, said until Rufai is sacked, he will not appear on the TV station, stating that the station has “become a TV Station of anything goes.
“I will never go there again until Rufai Oseni is removed.
“The Animal Science graduate is making a mockery of Journalism. Televion Station is not a place for mediocres and noise makers”, the APC chieftain posted.
