Arise News In Plot With PDP To Embarrass Tinubu – APC PCC

The All Progressives Congress (APC), Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), has accused Chairman and Editor-in-Chief of THISDAY and Arise News Television, Nduka Obaigbena, of organising townhall meetings in cahoots with the PDP to embarrass the APC flagbearer, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Reacting to the rebuttal issued by Obaigbena, the pair of Dele Alake and Bayo Onanuga of the Media Directorate of the APC PCC in a joint statement alleged that the Arise News townhall meetings were sponsored by the PDP to embarrass Tinubu.

“In his first statement attacking us, Obaigbena craftily attempted to mis-characterise as an attack on free speech, our principled stand against his blackmail to have Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu appear on Arise TV and its PDP sponsored Town Hall meetings,” the statement reads.

“In the second statement, he was still adamant that our candidate must attend his town hall debate, despite our stance that our candidate is already executing another communications strategy to reach the most important target: the Nigerian voters.

“We, repeat again: We will not make our candidate available to validate a scheme which, in the light of unassailable information at our disposal, is nothing but a racket by the Arise News owner, designed to embarrass our candidate,”the Tinubu team said.
