Dictatorship :Benue House Speaker Sends Channels TV Crew Out Of The Chamber.




Channels TV crew was today ordered out of the Chambers by the Speaker Hon Kyambe, this information has just been reported by Channels TV. Read what the TV station posted.


Dictatorial democratic tendencies played out at the Benue State House of Assembly on Thursday when the Speaker, Mr Terkimbi Kyange, ordered Channels Television’s correspondent out from the chamber.

The walk-out order against Channels Television was not unconnected to anearlier report of the Television station, showing a free for all fight the lawmakers resorted to during Tuesday’s plenary over the House leadership.

On arrival at the Assembly chamber, the Channels Television’s correspondent, Pius Angbo, was asked to leave by the Press Secretary and the Sergeant At-Arm, on the strength of the Speaker’s directive to accredit all journalists covering the Assembly.
All journalists, who came for the plenary, were allowed in except Channels Television crew.
Effort by the Clerk of the State Assembly to allow Channels Television’s correspondent cover Thursday’s plenary was resisted by the Press Secretary who insisted that the speaker did not approve of Channels Television coverage of the Assembly.
