Tunaji: Raymond Dokpesi Jr, Chairman of DAAR Communications, has defended the management shake-up following the sudden passing of his father, Chief Raymond Aleogho Dokpesi Sr, saying the tough decisions were necessary to stabilise the company and secure its future.
Speaking in Abuja, Dokpesi Jr explained that the exit of long-serving executives, including Mr. Tony Akiotu, was a difficult but inevitable step to ensure the continuity and growth of the organisation. The transition, he said, was carefully managed to avoid tensions and maintain investor and stakeholder confidence.
He revealed that the company faced serious challenges immediately after his father’s death, including a sharp drop in investor confidence and declining share prices. Dokpesi recounted that he was drawn into both family responsibilities and urgent company matters, only to discover that the company secretary had convened an emergency board meeting without his knowledge—prompting him to consider formal petitions to safeguard corporate governance.
Finalising the exit of the long-serving management team took over 14 months, allowing him to balance company stability with family mourning and staff emotions.
“It is also true that whilst leaving, they had salary arrears and other obligations which we as an organisation had to fulfil. But they had led management for the past 15 years and had built up salary arrears into billions,” he said.
Apologising to the former executives, he added: “I will continuously apologise to Mr. Tony Akiotu and the exited management staff for any feelings that were hurt by the actions taken. But without regrets, I believe it was the right decision, and the proof is in the pudding—which we are already tasting, and it tastes sweet.”
Dokpesi said the leadership changes enabled the company to prioritise salary obligations and strengthen operational autonomy. He noted that DAAR Communications has since made steady progress, with most business units now self-sufficient and others on track to achieve full independence by year-end.
The chairman credited the recovery and improved operational efficiency to decisive corporate governance measures taken during the transition and highlighted that rising share prices reflect returning investor confidence, signalling that the organisation is steadily regaining its footing.
https://www.vanguardngr.com/2026/02/tough-decisions-saved-daar-communications-from-collapse-dokpesi-jr/ I doubt you were born when your father went all over Nigeria cap in hand raising one naira each from Nigerians to keep Daar comm going. When via political patronage AIT found its feet your father did not deem it fit to celebrate Nigerians who contributed to the AIT success story. Listen, you will take that route again . Reason is, a house built on shifting sands like Daar Comms will not stand! It will collapse sooner than later! By the way, Tony Akiotu stayed too long on the potty! He should have known that it was family business and the serial polygamist that Rayyyyyyyy Power was will have several children claiming to be his! ONLY A FOOLISH MAN MARRIES MORE THAN ONE WIFE AND STILL THINK HE IS THE ONLY MAN STAYING UNDER THE DUVET WITH THEM! YEYENATU!!! EVEN DRIVERS HAVE A GO!!! How can one man sexually cover the ground with several women he says are his wives! Even In Yorubaland the Traditional Ruler who keeps a harem of women know which are his among the several children his wives give birth to in the Palace! While some of the children belong to the Palace Chiefs even cleaners in the Palace have theirs! What a mess when men refuse to follow God! |

megamank: So he should be killed? He has suffered enough and his detention is causing division between the south east and other regions... just free him on some strict conditions and let everyone breath away from this lingering issue Just amazing how folks cannot understand the judicial process. It smacks of delusion to say the least. Know it now that Nnamdi Kanu has been sentenced to a life jail term of imprisonment. The death of Dora Akunyili's husband in the midst of all that madness is particularly painful! Only an appellate court can interfere with that by replacing the life jail term with the deserved death sentence which the Law mandatorily prescribes or set aside the life jail term or confirm it. Youtube contains evidence of Kanu's guilt written in white chalk on a blackboard background! It is unmistakeable!! |

Our democracy will be deepened by the reregistration of such political parties as failed, disgruntled and desperate politicians will be limited in their choice for a platform. They will stay in their political parties and sort things out. |

When it was time for trial and judgment the coward and his misguided followers began peeing in their pants and tried in vain to use all kinds of delay tactics to blackmail the Judge and stall the judicial process.

olubunmimary100: Good morning everyone I don't know if this is the right section to post this trend An incident happened to me two weeks ago, on my way heading to church, I saw an infinix hot 8 phone, I took the phone to see if there is a way to locate the owner but the phone was off, that day happens to be on Wednesday, at last I was able to locate the owner on Friday, on the screen saver of the phone I saw the picture of the owner, the owner happens to be a welder, I had to locate him and give the phone back to him, he was very excited and he thank me for returning the phone.
I was on my way coming from church on Sunday when the guy came with two policemen to arrest me that I stole the phone where he was charging it with 500,000 and power bank, and also borrowed 3k recharge card on the sim card, he was screaming very hard at the police station. Instead of the police to investigate the matter, they said I was at fault that the phone has spent more than 24hours in my hand. To cut the long story short,it was people In that area that came to my rescue that that was was always high on substance like weed and Colorado that the police should not mind him, after I was detained for over 24hours, i I was told to pay for the power bank, pay the 3k and bail fee....
Life is a lesson The more we live the more we learn I have learnt a very big lesson. You were under no legal obligation to pick up the phone. Your lesson is learnt I suppose. |
