Chief Executive Officer, Multichoice Nigeria, John Ugbe, has been elected the Chairman of the Broadcasting Organisations of Nigeria (BON).
He defeated Sir. Godfrey Ohuabunwa of Multimesh Limited by 63 to 35 votes in a keenly contested election at the Coronation Hall of the Kano State Government House, Kano.
The election was part of the 75th General Assembly and 20th Annual General Meeting (AGM) of BON.
In another news, the Federal government has raised the alarm that “a section of the broadcast media has been lending its platform to agents of divisiveness, hatred, disunity, and misinformation.”
The minister of information and culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, who disclosed this in his keynote address at the opening of the 75th general assembly of the Broadcasting Organisations of Nigeria (BON) in Kano yesterday, said some broadcast stations revel in lending their platforms to those whose stock-in-trade is to spew hate as well as angry and divisive rhetoric and misinformation.
He, however, implored broadcast organisations to continue to leverage their power and reach to foster national unity and development.
