Drama on Arise TV: Rufai Oseni, Reuben Abati Clash Over Wike Comments During Live Broadcast
There was a heated exchange between Arise TV anchors Rufai Oseni and Dr. Reuben Abati during Thursday morning’s edition of The Morning Show, after the two journalists disagreed over comments concerning FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and the 2027 political landscape.
The argument became intense enough that the producer and co-host Ojy Okpe reportedly had to intervene to bring the exchange under control.
The disagreement reportedly started during a discussion about comments made by FCT Minister Nyesom Wike and how his political activities and statements were being analysed on the programme.
At one point, Dr. Reuben Abati cautioned Rufai Oseni over what he described as statements that could expose the station to legal action.
Rufai Oseni, however, pushed back against the warning, suggesting that Abati’s reaction was connected to their disagreement over political views.
Oseni responded:
“It’s only when I disagree with your views that you start shouting lawsuits.”
The exchange quickly became heated, with both journalists talking over each other before the intervention from the production team and Ojy Okpe helped to bring the argument to an end.
The moment has since attracted attention online, with viewers reacting to the unusual disagreement between the two familiar faces on The Morning Show.
The incident comes amid intense political discussions on Arise TV as politicians and commentators continue to debate alliances and the 2027 elections.
Rufai Oseni and Reuben Abati regularly feature in political discussions on the programme.
The heated exchange between Rufai Oseni and Reuben Abati has now become a talking point among viewers.
Who do you think made the stronger argument, Rufai Oseni or Reuben Abati?
