The Department of State Services has denied arresting two Channels Television reporters over alleged anti-Buhari comments made by two guests during the station’s ‘Sunrise Daily’ breakfast programme.
DSS Spokesman, Peter Afunanya, disclosed this in a statement on Thursday titled, ‘No Channels Television Reporters Were Arrested By The DSS’.
Media reports (not Infopowerng) had it that two presenters of the programme, Chamberlain Usoh and Kayode Okikiolu, were picked up by the secret police after separate interviews with the Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom; and a former Navy Commodore, Kunle Olawunmi.
But Afunanya said, “The attention of the DSS has been drawn to news making the rounds in some sections of the media that its operatives earlier today (26th August, 2021) arrested two (2) journalists of Channels Television. This is false and misleading. Fake news peddlers should shun the act.”
