Things are really getting out on hand in this country, a caller got a basket full of tongue-lashing on a children's talk show for telling a 10-12 year old to spell MNEMONIC by the presenter. he even went as far as cutting callers off when callers called to caution him.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IS SPECIAL ABOUT A STATION DAT DOESN'T,T RESPECT CALLERS.

Which radio station is it please, which presenter and which programme?

Pls give more details to make this gist really interesting. We need names, time and location.

ON cool FM i don't know the name of the presenter but the guy was so rude on air, they were having this children talk show,with two children on the show,(a boy and a girl) and the idea was for people to call in and give them words to spell. The boy was overconfident cause he was getting all the spellings right. This particular guy called and asked the boy to spell MNEMONIC,he spelt PNEUMONIC and the caller said he was wrong.At this point, the presenter not knowing such a word existed challenged the guy and asked him the meaning of the word. The guy tried to explain to him, he didn't give him a chance to explain, only for him to start laughing at the guy, the caller then told him to check the meaning of the word in the dictionary and hung up. The presenter took it personal and started making such remarks as "he probably graduated with a third class", "he has a mere OND" and several other derogatory statements.

A lady had to call in again to caution him but he refused to accept he was wrong and cut her off too.
Whatever happened to the days when presenters were cultured and respectful? Now all we get are presenters that are so full of themselves, they feel every other person is a walkover.

...........Poor Human Relation.......

In As Much As The Presenter Need To Be Profesional.The caller Need To Have A ''Tongue Control System''...I have Listened To Many Radio Conversation Where The Callers Are Just Unnecesary Naughty And Rude..And That Push The Presenters To The Extreme,They have to React.You Know Why.......THEY ARE HUMANS

I'd say inferiority complex and bad training
And you got that right of presenters been so full of themselves nowadays e.g. Rhythm FM presenters [and no need to name names]

I stopped listening to cool fm because of their presenters.
all of them are so stupid with fake accents and are extremely rude and always yabbing callers.
I don't know the presenter you are talking about because like I said I no longer listen to them because Cool fm is trash but I know for sure that Freeze is sooooo rude and full of himself. Honestly I don't just understand why.

I only started listening to the stupid station when I left naija to keep me in touch with home but honestly I will rather listen to stations here and check NL for updates than listen to insults from some silly presenter.
Abeg who knows of any better naija radio station that streams live online?

That's what you get when every Tom Dick and Harry become media personalities without undergoing proper media/communication training. Na dem go come dey form celebs everywhere, even more than the proper media staff.

No mind my Nokia 3310 jare

Absolutely not''!

though cool fm used to be my fav fm, classic fm anytime any day.

Most of the reporters these days are very rude without manners whatsoever, all they have is their fake accents and empty brains.

I have been looking for a way to get to a presenter of Brilla FM.


He is jst f***in 2 rude. The way he answers callers and drop their calls on his shows.

Everytime, i think that gaddemn it, Is this guy aware of au many trials those guys do before getting through successfully.

And it is crazy to assume all callers are of the lowwwwwww class and even if ? Respect is needed.

I stopped listening to his daily fan assembly cos of the pompous way he handles it. Please someone should correct him.

It was Freeze all right and he was with Kayla on the "Meet the parents" show. I really admired the lady who called in to caution Freeze on his arrogance and silly statements to the "mnemonic" guy. Freeze is known for his braggadacio.

I disagree they are not human in this context. They should be professional. If we dont listen, will they be on air ?

Both words (MNEMONIC & PNEUMONIC) are actually correct and they are in the dictionary. I don't know how to judge this case now but its wrong to be rude whether you are a caller, host or a presenter.

I will not be surprised if it turns out that he is violent/ a woman beater.
Honestly that guy really got temper issues and he NEVER listens to corrections.
He believes that he knows it all and others are olodos.

It's "Daddy freeze" who usually hosts the morning shows. A dumb guy called DOTUN is usually rude to callers too, he even disses female co presenters and sh*t like that. Cool f.m management should look into that B.S. Those dudes are doing more harm than good to their listeners.

I think they both av got different pronunciation

MNEMONIC========\ni-ˈmä-nik\
PNEUMONIC========\nu̇-ˈmä-nik, nyu̇-\
