Arise TV abruptly ended a live broadcast this morning after Lere Olayinka, the media aide to FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, insulted anchor Rufai Oseni and refused to answer his questions.
Olayinka appeared as a guest on The Morning Show to face the program’s three co-anchors: Dr. Reuben Abati, Rufai Oseni, and Ayo Mairo-Ese.
The situation escalated when Oseni took his turn to question the media aide. Instead of responding to the query, Olayinka deflected and stated that he only came on the live show to answer questions from “reasonable people.”
‘’I am very sorry to say this Rufai but I do not want to answer any question from you. I want this conversation to be among reasonable human beings, people who will not come and describe other people as Gbewu dani. I want this discussion to be among reasonable people,” he said
The derogatory remark drew an immediate reaction from Ayo, who defended her colleague. She firmly reminded Olayinka that he was aware he would be questioned by all three hosts upon accepting the invitation.
Refusing to continue, Ayo promptly thanked the guest for his time and cut the interview short, effectively taking Olayinka off the air.
