Arise TV host, Rufai Oseni has again, clashed on a live show with a guest who was fielding questions on Nigeria’s economy.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain, Jesutega Onokpasa, on Monday, vehemently disagreed with Oseni’s position during the interview regarding some of the policies of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Trouble started in the studio when Rufai said Onokpasa was misrepresenting the facts about fuel subsidy removal by Tinubu which he announced on the inauguration day as President.
Rufai also stated that the economy had reached an all-time low since Tinubu assumed office, insisting the crashing naira-dollar exchange rate has become worrisome, as well as the living conditions of Nigerians.
Displeased with the questions, Onokpasa interrupted Rufai and threatened to walk out of the studio while pointing his finger at the journalist.
The APC chieftain refused to respond to Oseni’s questions as he accused the latter of disrespecting him.
The issue led to a heated argument before journalist and former presidential aide, Reuben Abati called both parties to order.
