Independent Television (ITV) Benin, Burnt Down by dtruth3(m): 11:12am On Mar 08, 2015
Some group of APC terror members has burnt down one of the media houses (ITV) in Benin city, following the percieved biase against its party in the state.

You would recall sometime ago, the All Progressive Congress (APC) had warned the ITV media house in the state; to stop its alleged role in painting the state government in a bad light.

Edo State billionaire, Gabriel Igbinedion has suffered a major loss as the building that houses his television station has been burnt down.

The Benin office of Independent Television and Radio was razed to the ground on Saturday, March 7.

The cause of the fire has not yet been determined but Igbinedion’s daughter, Omosede has expressed the belief that it was the work of arsonists.

“It is clear that the attack on ITV is purely sabotage, a calculated attempt,” she told City People.

Omosede is contesting for the Ovia Federal Constituency seat at the House of Representatives on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

what proof is there that the opposition burnt it down. We are now in an era when everything sinister must be put on the doorsteps of the opposing party. Rancorous electioneering pattern all over.

Re: Independent Television (ITV) Benin, Burnt Down by fineguy11(m): 12:22pm On Mar 08, 2015
Humm.even when investigations are yet to be carried out,,some PDP e-parasite are already blaming the opposition for this...as for ITV,,the propagandist station dat aired dat fake news on the comrade governor entourage slapping a priest,only for dem to retract their allegation for fear of being sued,,....at least i go hear word small,no more OMOSEDE advert...
Least i forget,,if there waw a fire,,it probably was minor one coz dier station was on this afternoon...its also possible there was no fire @all and probably the OP is delusional..

I am a benin resident, its pathetic the rate itv was going just like ait. Its owner igbinedion a pdp chieftan had turned it to the opposition of everything apc did. This is good 4 democracy since the so called journalism is now diving into politics, they should get a rub from the mud they place themselves. It can not be verified who did this as their is no evidence of apc hand in it. The whole media houses should emulate channels tv that has remained resolute and fair. Ait shld get ready 4 theirs in as much as i condem the act, it has no proof of apc involvment. My take is that when journalism chooses to play politics instead of been neutral, it is bond to get reactions as this. The pdp may as well have schemed this to draw sympathy to itself as the world knew itv is pro pdp like ait or nta

The same ITV that is owned by Igbinedion, whose son [Lucky Igbinedion, a former PDP governor] was convicted and sentenced to kirikiri for corruption and looting of public funds. Although I condemn the act by the perpetrators, nevertheless, other media houses should learn from this.

Why don't you APC supporters tolerate criticism. See what you just typed, my question is what if those opposed to your view, decide to burn down Punch News Papers Office or The Nation News Paper what will you say? what AIT is airing is sponsored and paid for, by PDP elements, what I am expecting APC to do is to sponsor a counter either on AIT or TVC, it is all politics, watch the USA campaign season and see how dirty smear campaigns can be.

So in your own opinion, violence is good for our demoracy? so this is how APC intends to rule, if mistakenly they siezes power at the center? by then, anybody or media outfit that opposes it will be burnt down abi?

clapp for yourself, you made lot of sence!

Good, no PDP cry when APC rally in rivers state was disrupted by bombings and people were killed. Now its their turn to mourn...at least no human life was lost unlike what the PDP did in rivers state.

Which one of them is now truly the bloodsucking party
