This is a media slap, and i feel we should (press) revolt against this.
Suspected thugs suspected to be affiliated with the All Progressives Congress (APC) political party have attacked the crew of African Independent Television (AIT) in Ekiti State.
The television station’s crew were in Ikere Ekiti, Ado Ekiti State, to transmit ‘Live’ coverage of the Labour Party's (LP) Governorship Candidate, Michael Opeyemi Bamidele, campaign rally.
The campaign rally was attended by party stalwarts, which included Governor Olusegun Mimiko, of the Ondo state, and the Party's National Chairman, Mr. Dan Inwanyanwu.
The thugs brandished weapons, guns, and other weaponry, before descending on their targets, and made away with equipment, and other accessories belonging to the occupants of the vehicles.
Cameras, recording devices, including transmission gadgets belonging to the station were smashed, and badly destroyed. We hope this will not play out in Edo state, as the momentum is getting high.
