OMISORE COMMISERATES WITH CHANNELS TV, SAYS ONUEKWUSI WAS A FINE GENTLEMAN

OSUN, Nigeria – Former Deputy Governor of Osun State, Senator Iyiola Omisore has joined many other Nigerians to commiserate with the family of the late State House Correspondent of Channels Television, Mr Chukwuma Onuekwusi and the entire management and staff of the highly distinguished television station

Senator Omisore, in a condolence message he personally signed, extolled the professional acumen of the distinguished newsman.

According to him, “Mr Onuekwusi’s death is still a big shock to many of us who knew him well while he was alive.

“I’ve known Chukwuma since my framed/trumped-up charges days in 2003 in Ibadan. He covered the trial professionally and diligently! till I was discharged and acquitted. Since then he had earned my trust and friendship,” Omisore recalled.

“He was a fine gentleman and a thorough media professional. The Nigerian media industry will, no doubt, miss his invaluable contribution.”

Omisore, therefore, prayed “that God should comfort his immediate family and members of the Channels Television organisation and grant them the fortitude to bear the painful and irreparable loss.”
