Just recently, Femi Adesina made a statement in an interview with channels TV that all over the world casualties of soldiers aren't disclosed. This statement was however proven to be a blatant lie as there are records of casualties of soldiers from UK, US, France and several countries which are accessible online and to citizens.


Adesina came under heavy attacks and criticisms from Nigerians following this lie. However, a journalist with CBC news, BBC who is based in Lagos, named Anna Cunningham with twitter handle @journo_anna this morning discovered that channelstv had edited the said interview on their YouTube page and cut out the part where Femi Adesina made the controversial statement?

Question:
Why did channels TV cut out the part where Femi made the figure statement?
Whose interest was channels TV serving to have edited the video?
Are channels TV doing the bidding of the APC?
Can channels TV be henceforth seen as unbiased and reliable news platform?

Here is the editted video on channels YouTube?

The screenshots and reactions.

They were in full support of APC government in 2015 now they are looking for were to hide their face in shame

Can We Now call it APC TV or Lies TV instead of Channels

Earlier reactions to his original statement where his claim was debunked.

Femi Adesina is right.

There is nothing they do or say these days that surprises me honestly........

We are just getting punishments for something we did in hindsight

Yes, that was why channels TV had to come to his rescue by removing his lie from the video?

Lalasticlala, come and see something.

Is this right from channels TV?

For any media in Nigeria to keep functioning, they had to abide by apc's rule that is to edit, cut and beautify the video for it to suit Nigeria

Lalasticlala in the interest of fairplay this thread deserves frontpage.
Channelstv is no longer fair and balanced. I guess Lai Mohammed put his money to good use.

When government owned stations are cesspit of propaganda, we took solace in the private owned stations for succour.

Channels can still regain her fading glory. I have a soft spot for that station

What a shame. HAS channels become as rotten as the APC rice?

A BMC member just provoked me updere and I reported,citin rule 2

Don't abuse,bully,delibratelyinsult/PROVOKE,fight or wish harm to Nairaland members or their Tribe.

BMC members wish harm for evry single Nairalander and demsefs,join me in reportin dem anywhere u see dem

Funny how some people are still realising how partisan channels television has become...


I don't watch such useless channel

Oh! Channels TV goes to the dogs! Shame!

A minute of silence for channels TV. We can see what the sophisticated people stand for .

Channels TV is the best. Let's stop the bring him down syndrome

Its not lai Mohammeds money. John momoh is an appointee in this govt

Who watches channels

I lost respect for channels television after 2015 elections

Lai mohammed had bought the media house,,,,its not only channels tv

Seun Okin baloye, Mauope Ogun and Ajuri are APC mole.
Whereas Chamberlain Usoh is sympathetic to PDP although not so obvious

All of a sudden Channels TV that used to shack me have become a shadow of itself.
I remember how I kept a tab on Sunrisedaily but these days I would rather tune to AIT, Arise or Silverbird.
Now this is actually very unconscious from me.
Not until I started seeing the foot print of APC on Seun Okin, whom I so much respect before now.
He has soft spot for Tinubu or should I say he is a Tinubu mole on Channels TV.
We all know that the ceo if the TV station is a staunch APC member.
One day I will bring out time to talk about the Intel's and agenda of Tinubu's dynasty.
But let me continue with the issue.
I recall vividly how seun would invite the former opc publicity secretary Ogundamisi, and introduced him as "a neutral observer"
"Like he lies through his teeth with so much shameless boldness"

It didn't end there,has anyone noticed that he focuses so much on mushroom candidates than the main candidates?
Hey before you say shii, check American political atmosphere, they have many parties but the main stream media focuses in the two major parties.

How many times have you seen channels TV cover exclusive reports?
You remember how they wasted enenche at kano while they are trying to cover the bokoharam?
You remember how Charles Eruka covered the violence in river state like jetli?
They used to go beyond boundaries but today, they are shadow of themselves.
I wonder who confers the award to them.
Anyway, let me stop here but I'm sooo disappointed with channels crew because they have been reduced to news reading blog.

Just saw the video and truly that part was edited out 5.30 into the video. This is sad and tragic. The Nigerian media is just not professional enough. Shout out to premium times and a few others . Soldiers died and for days no news paper could carry the news. If not for foreign media and premium times . Femi adesina lied on national television and channels tv that has won best station 12 years in a row edited the interview to protect the government in power. Media is supposed to tell it like it is and let the masses make up their mind . This is like a repeat of the military era just that this media of this era are being bought. Tragic.if you want to be absolutely sure of the edit, the display time at the bottom right of the video jumps from 20.45 to 20.47 in a matter of seconds when you get to 5.30 of the video. That's 2 minutes edited out. Maybe it was for advert

TVC also known as Tinubus Vision Continental is the worst. Used to watch their journalist hangout program but on one occasion where they clearly refused to criticize tinubu and ambode for lack of transparency in procurement of projects in a topic they were discussing, I just gave up on them. It's Normal to take sides Afterall fox loves Trump and CNN hates Trump but even when Trump withdrew the white house pass of that CNN reporter, fox supported and stood by the CNN reporter. Even fox won't edit like this to protect Trump. It's unethical. Which way Nigeria.

I don't watch Channels TV and TVC anymore and my company have stopped advertizing with them, they are just puppet stations that are in bed with the useless government. They are more or less an extension of the worthless state-run NTA.

It is common knowledge that, that Pseudo-Arab anchor called Ajuri Ngelale and others of channels tv are APC card carrying members. They don't even try to hide it. If they do a self-appraisal and tell themselves the truth they'll see that their viewership and patronage have reduced since they started wallowing with the buffoons in aso rock.

I'll stick to Arise News and STV when I want truthful reportage.

APC will be the greatest undoing of Channels Tv

They will collapse with APC.

By next year, Channels TV will be relegated to the history of failures just like AIT is now struggling

Very shameful

Its clear channels are part of media houses receiving brown envelopes from the basin mouth lai Mohammed, seun okin will be speaking big grammar while collecting bribes.

madridguy:
Femi Adesina is right.

Anumanu

When lie Mohammed hosted journalists in a hotel and begged them to be biased with their news in favour of APC you think brown envelope were not distributed to them?They are part of the BMC crew who collect ₦30k monthly.
