I watched that segment. There was no drama. It was lighthearted.

A truthteller hardly has a place to stay in the midst of liars.

Ruben Abati has always been a Yoruba fanatic in the mode of Bayo Onanuga. You need to go and read about his write up against the east during the Obasanjo years. Dude got himself into hot waters writing about how Obasanjo will "cut off" the heads of Biafrans. It nearly cost him his job at The Guardian then..
Tribalism cones naturally to this bunch. Its all about ethnic defence.

They are always like that. They fooled a lot of people with their anti Abacha tirades during the NADECO days. Folks thought they were pro democracy fighters in the mould of Gani Fawhenmi and Fela. No. They were/are not! Both Abati and Onanuga are all tribal irridentists, who hopped on the pro democracy bandwagon to climb politically and professionally, and are now exhibiting all their noxious tribal penchants, since their tribesman is in power..

The way Oseni is working assiduously for Biafra now

CNN anchors will NEVER say if the President does not do this, they will ....NEVER and if you find one where an anchor said this, please post it here. Guests on CNN may say that but not trained anchors and journalists. Even at that, TRUMP has been cashing out suing some stations and reaching settlements. Imagine if Tinubu sued some stations, they will shout Nigeria is OVER, Freedom of Press and other nonsense.

LeeSmart:
CNN anchors will do thesame thing to president Trump and ur type will hail dem but will be quick to talk about slapping someone becus it involves ur darling president?

Is the legendary Reuben abati now a low level thug?

ElSudani:
And the person he believes can bring this change is Obi. The same Obi he asked about three times on TV what he intended to do differently from Tinubu and he couldn't answer.
He only gave a vague answer about doing things "systematically"
Rufai is just a hack masquerading as a journalist.

Very very unprofessional guy and very arrogant, rude and disrespectful

Because the networks were bought over by right wing billionaires and made to capitulate.
They weren't bastion of truth by the way because no one gave high ratings to legacy media and truth telling.

Small men behave the way predator tyrant trump does.

The entire Arise crew are a bunch of clowns. I get irritated listening to them.

Rufai listen. Men dey fall men.

Then stop.

helinues:
Next time, na dirty slap Abati go give him

hand dey pain you? Rufai is desperate for good leader while Abati is desperate for monthly salary for defending evils leaders

How will a journalist threaten a president? Don't forget Abati has worked with the establishment. He is one of them.

kushme:
Then stop.

I don’t watch them anymore.

SmartPolician:
Rufai is genuinely tired of bad leadership and desperately needs change, but Reuben Abati is friends with these evil politicians that destroyed this country and he's also part of our problem.

who are you tipping for the needed change? Funny people everywhere. Give Rufai Arise tv to manage for one year, all the best hands will run away.

Fair...

Did you even watch the video?

Let’s divide this country into zones!! Each zone can call their leaders to order, this current set up is not working! Government in Nigeria is now family and friends.., if you speak, people will say you are a non entity.

Is this how leadership is abroad? Sebi our leaders are always traveling up and down?

Where is the threat in what Oseni said? I guess Reuben was just being jovial.

I have always been a fan of Rufai Oseni for his bold stance against injustice by the political class in Nigeria. However, as per this one, Reuben only cautioned him not to threaten the president like that on live television. For me, Reuben didn't do anything bad.

This generation is hopelessly clueless

They didn't bother to even find out why Abati had to caution Rufai.

Rufai said Tinubu should condemn the Cameroon elections or risk having himself condemned by Arise TV crew
Ruben Abati being the only one with some sense amongst the bunch cautioned him against threatening the president of Nigeria


And rightly so for God sakes!

PBAT is no different from Paul Biya.

Rufai was silent because he knows nothing about international current affairs until it got to tinubu then he had erection🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yeah... Oseni needs to be more professional and courteous even while doling out criticisms.

You can't just come on air and go ranting like it's a beer parlor.


That said... I still commend him and those still bold and uncompromising enough to call a spade what it is.

The truth about Nigerian leadership should never be sugarcoated.

kushme:
Fair...

Even Seun from Channels is starting to really get on my nerves with his pathetic attempts to be a poor man’s Richard Quest. Intellectually, he is a 5/10 but still far ahead of anyone in Arise.

ShoeMarket:
That guy Rufai wants to see a nation that is working. His heart is really bleeding for the kind of mess we have found ourselves in. Unfortunately, there is nothing he can do about it especially when in the midst of Nigerians who love their lives more than anything and so not ready to fight the fight.

But unfortunately he's collecting #20m from politicians per interview because he loves to see a change in the political landscape. Abegiii leave matter for Matthias.

Omenlon:

Obi or Sowore. However, Sowore is young, so he could be more brutal and can mess things up. Some people talk about how the Dangotes enjoy monopoly fueled by policy support, forgetting the same people have created thousands of jobs here.

So, Sowore could come in and upset the apple cart. That's why I want him to serve in a lower office like guber or senate so we can better understand the kind of person he is.

That is what is called maturity.

Last last Rufai will still go to work for Tinubu


FFK and Bawa did worse
