Wike sacks MDs of RST, RadioRivers and Garden City Radio

The Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, on Monday, announced sack of the Managing Directors of the state-owned television and radio stations.

Wike said they were dismissed because of their failure to attend a meeting organized by the Broadcasting Organisation of Nigeria (BON) led by the Chairman, John Momoh.

Governor Wike said he was embarrassed that none of the state-owned broadcasting parastatals honoured the meeting.

He also charged BON to always stand on the side of the people and speak the truth concerning the issues in the country at all times.

BON is in the state for its 71st General Assembly meeting, which will be focusing on raising the bar in the digitalization of the broadcast industry.
