There's a trending debate about this write up on @osita_chidoka by the author. What's your take on this about the rise to fame of Chidoka and issues raised..👇👇👇👇👇👇

ENOUGH of YELLOW JOURNALISM!

When I watched Chidoka answering questions on channels TV, on Tuesday 26/5/20
politics tonight”, and he was talking about nepotism and the need to sack the entire cabinet of @MBuhari, because @PowerMinNigeria has sacked @TCN_NIGERIA MD without due process (the SGF intervened when it came to his attention), and also
similar issue at @FMHDSD, I laughted: for three reasons :

1. Because the anchor is so lazy that he didn’t confront him with facts : chidoka, did his NYSC in 1997/8, and married Ojo Madueke’s daughter, he was appointed his PA as PDP Secretary, where his father in-law was
Secretary of the party .
They won 1999 election and Ojo became a minister of Transport. He appoints him again his PA.
During that time he went to attend a course for 3months on marine transportation in Singapore and when Ojo was reappointed a minister of External Affairs in 2003,
they were still together, then vacancy occurred in @FRSCNigeria (everyone thought an insider will be appointed Alas! The influence of the father in-law intervened again! Minister Ojo personally told OBJ that he has an “expert “, on transportation, and OBJ being an impulsive old
man, and the fact that no Ibo man has headed the agency, Behold! that PA son in-law was appointed Corps Marshall.
It was public knowledge the brouhaha that occurred because a lot of senior officers were retired, because chidoka was in primary school when they graduated and have
Masters and PhDs, many more were on level 12, 13, 14, then ( my friend inclusive who joined @FRSCNigeria in 1990/91), when he ( Chidoka) was still in secondary school !
They showed outrage and they were ignored and eased out.
By the time he got his second tenure, and the ID, scandal blew up ( he converted his wife’s experimental photo studio machines to motor vehicle license equipments and all those license of that era ( two to three years were fading in weeks; I was a victim and I still have it) the
scandal was investigated and father in law intervened and he was “ cleared”!

Finally the last gift of the stalwart father in-law was the ministerial appointment by @GEJonathan, after Stella Was removed and he ended the Anambra ministerial slot tenure.
During these years he acquired a Green card bought a house in the USA and literally moved his family there. This interview he granted via Skype: cos #COVID19 traveling restriction, is from his house in USA, he has been there since Christmas some may argue since they lost the
election of 2019!
He has a fancy title: SA to PDP chairman on external engagement !
His analysis was so much a personal experience that the nincompoop @seunokin the host was just dazzled with him, that he came out sounding like a non-benefit of nepotism and good
Ambassador of due process ! Imagine!! Just because the anchor didn’t research his guest as done by international news media. Sadly the trolls on social media are so gullible that they are insulting the naija number one enemy; PMB and his government!! Even the
party thst institutionalized nepotism, cronyism , bad governances are calling for cabinet change ; not their party not their win! Is that what opposition does in other democracies ?

2. If the president has reversed the minister of power twice, how can PDP or
Chidoka accused him of being weak, or blaming the office of CoS by extension late Kyari who died weeks ago, before the removal?

3. Why am I subjecting myself to watching a program that since 2018, was anchored towards inviting guests that will come and insult the government
without facts and clear bias! A government change which they couldn’t get through the ballot or the tribunal?
Isn’t it time the @channelstv Editors stop this anchor for destroying the little reputation John Momoh has left! Most news station or any station at all for that matter,
or/and Newspapers always die with the proprietors( literary or reputation wise?)

The VP @ProfOsinbajo has showed you can demand for truth to be told or face the court in a similar circumstance of lies & innuendo, and they retract, @MBuhari has choose silence which is his right
to exercise, but why can’t the journalists, self regulate themselves or we just are not cut out to celebrate good people only scandals (remember that platform was where @PeterObi lies that the Lagos-Ibadan Railway was PDP project, the Kaduna-Abuja Rail got to Kaduna during PDP:
when in fact it stopped at kubwa! 2nd Niger Bridge that two presidents of PDP laid the foundation cashed the allocated money, but nothing was done, many other examples like that until PMB two years)
2nd Niger Bridge is now on course and the project is on schedule, and Ibos are
still hating him, to mention a few!
I have in a piece recently showed that Ibo elites started nepotism in Nigeria under General Ironsi, but still the narrative of lies persists!!"
