NTA yanks off Funmi Iyanda's "Change A Life programme" while running live

So yesterday January 1st, was media personality Funmi Iyanda's annual "Change in Life" TV special, an edition where she honoured Lagos state governor Babatunde Fashola in appreciation for his support for the foundation over for the past 8 years. The show was supposed to air live on NTA but the station only showed it for some time and later yanked it off. Annoying thing for the host and guests was that while on set they thought they were live on air not knowing they'd already been yanked off. NTA later said the programme was yanked off due to internal Communication Error. See the tweets after the cut...

@ Dele momodu, we know all ur plans. Must u politicize everything? D station was apologetic and says they will air d program again. Funmi Iyanda sounds understanding. Y is dis a big issue. D greatest problem we av in Nigeria is that we keep on working against ourselves. Can't we be one for crying out loud! Am waiting for d daft people who will call Jonathan's name on dis issue. Rubbish!

Honoring and commending a governor from a rival party on national tv barely six weeks to the general elections, I guess that is unacceptable to the ruling party. There is always a blessing to every disappoint tho, I'm eagerly looking forward to the total number of views the show wld earn online. @losjepush

GALORE said...

@Dele momodu...pls keep shut Sir....why are u taking ds thing too personal?

Why are u crying more than the bereaved?

Let @Funmi handle ds her self

Stop taking it too "political"

NTA and AIT re PDP media houses so opposition re not allow to air anything,sometime when someone from the opposition party is on air,you will be surprise that AIT will start to crack and break in transmission as if there re replaying or making use of china dvd**EMZEALLOUS**

If it wasn't internal communication issues then that was very wrong of NTA! But then again, this is naija!

thankgodshakes said...

Gone are the days of technical stupidity, now is the tym for substantial truth. If they like, let dem burn dia studio, fashola and his team appear sane and sound. Truth must always be told, no matter whose ox is gored. Dats d same way dey came for femi adesina concerning an article he wrote. I dnt knw d people doing dis, bt i sure know dey are merchants of blackmail and collective enemies of national prosprity.

Sorry

Okay,and it's bad if it's intentional but it might be communication error as they claimed

NTA is being paid by govt so basically PDP. They dare not put anything is show cases an opposition. Terrible. So who plays the pipe dictates the tune. I though NTA was run by tax payers and Nigerian people so all sides must be shown and let the people make their mind up.
