APC condemns anti-Buhari news on Progress FM



The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State has condemned the alleged use of Radio Nigeria Progress 100.5 FM, Ado-Ekiti to run down President Muhammadu Buhari and portray his administration in bad light.

The party urged the Director-General of the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN), Ladan Salihu, to call the General Manager of Progress 100.5 FM, Kayode Akinsola, to order.

In a statement yesterday by its Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatunbosun, the APC said its latest position was hinged on a programme aired on the station on Wednesday between 1.30 pm and 2pm where Governor Ayo Fayose was quoted to have called Buhari and the Federal Government unprintable names.

Olatunbosun explained that Akinsola was fond of not giving the APC opportunity to be heard on the station.

The party spokesman said Akinsola’s alleged partisanship has become worrisome.

He said: “We are sick and tired of Akinsola’s antics. We have complained and appealed to him but he has always rebuffed our appeals.

“The general manager will never use any press release by APC, yet he allows Fayose a free rein to abuse President Buhari regularly.

”Since he took over as the GM, he has not hidden his preference for the promotion of Fayose’s propaganda and overt support for PDP leaders and their activities.

The party urged Salihu to investigate Akinsola.
