Uduaghan Asks NBCgovNG To Sanction ChannelsTV For Airing Dubious Okowa Documentary | SaharaReporters 'The Channels Television has portrayed our client in the advertisement as if he is campaigning for GovIfeanyiOkowa, who is the PDP candidate..READ MORE:
"The Channels Television has portrayed our client in the advertisement as if he is campaigning for Okowa, who is the PDP candidate, whereas our client is now a card-carrying member and a stalwart of the All Progressives Congress in Delta State. Our client is campaigning for Great Ovedje Ogboru for the governorship position. The video which has now gone viral is now being used as a form of blackmail against our client and this has affected his goodwill within the party.
In a petition addressed to the Director-General, National Broadcasting Commission, Abuja, signed by P.U. Agbone-Efejdare for Felix, Igelige & Associates, entitled ‘Re: Breach of Nigeria Broadcasting Code By Channels Television’, and obtained by SaharaReporters, Uduaghan demanded the sanction of the broadcast outfit in accordance with the extant laws and codes regulating broadcasting in Nigeria.
"It is our clients’ instructions that on 27/2/2019 at about 7pm–9pm during its commercials, the Channels Television made a broadcast in the form of advertisement with the caption ‘Testimony of Gov. Okowa’s Grand Achievements’ with our client appearing in videos uttering the following words: ‘I want to congratulate Ekueme for his roads construction efforts. The projects are completed and I congratulate him for that. My happiness is that he did not come and abandon the projects.
"The videos of our client used in the advert were videos recorded during the commissioning of some projects in Delta State while our client was still a member of the People’s Democratic Party. The videos were not made for the purpose of campaigning for Okowa who is the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party for the gubernatorial elections to be conducted on March 9, 2019 by the Independent National Electoral Commission. More so, the words ‘We go just dey follow you dey support you.
