Abike Dabiri-Erewa, the Chairman of the Nigerians in Diaspora Commission (NIDCOM) has called on the chairman of Arise TV, Nduka Obaigbena to caution the channel’s anchors, Ayo Mairo-Ese and Ojy Okpe.
Her statement followed Mairo-Ese’s Wednesday analysis of the viral comments of YouTube influencer Emdee Tiamiyu on BBC that Nigerians migrating to the United Kingdom use schooling as a ploy to gain entry into the country.
Mairo-Ese said Tiamiyu should not be criticised, alleging that President Muhammadu Buhari and Mrs Dabiri-Erewa have both made disparaging remarks about Nigerian youths in the past.
The NIDCOM boss, a former broadcast journalist, fired back in a tweet, noting that she worked hard to be where she is.
“I worked hard to be where I am today, and if women no where your age and achievements feel the only way to bring you down is spew nonsense, they will meet their waterloo!
“Nduka Obaigbena had better call these girls @ARISEtv ruining the broadcast profession to order,” she wrote.
