Arise TV Anchors Reuben Abati , Ojy Okpe Argue Over Alleged Igbo Hate Speech On Set

 It was almost the case of the absurd on Friday when two anchors of popular AM Arise TV programme Morning Show squared up amongst themselves 

Anchor of the ” What’s Trending ” segment of the programme Ojy Okpe wanted Dr Reuben Abati to react to several comments being made online over his comment on Thursday that Igbos of the South East never allowed non indigenes to buy land or build houses in their region 

He quoted a so called statement made by late TOS Benson to justify his claim

Dr Abati spoke while commenting on a remark by Senator Godswill Akpabio that he would do anything demanded of his Igbo in-laws to keep his wife.

Akpabio had commended the resilient of an average Igboman to excel wherever he finds himself 

Rather than address the issues raised by his fellow anchor , Abati boasted that he owns no one an apology on his comment 

According CKNNews , he also threatened Ojy Okpe if she supports those berating him online over his comments 

While Ojy tried to give him a right of reply , Dr Abati wouldn’t want to listen, he continued ranting and threatening while on set 

Ojy Okpe quickly signed off the topic by saying no one should paint a whole people with one brush because of the statement of one man 

The latest video is also trending on social media with many condemning Reuben Abati a veteran journalist for practically threatening a lady on set
