If news reliably gathered is anything to bank on, Television
Continental TVC is set to go on cable network, DSTV with 24 hours new.
We have it on good authority that TVC, as you read this piece has been
compartmentalized into TVC entertainment and TVC news, while the TVC
entertainment is the regular TV station viewed by Nigerians on their
televisions sets, the TVC news a 24 hours news channel is set to debut
on cable TV network DSTV. Gathered that the official launching of the
TVC news would have taken place on January 2013, but it was delayed due
to slow pace of work at the newly erected building that will house the
staff of the new TVC news. The new edifice is also tucked inside the
regular TVC office at Ikosi Road, Ketu, lagos, former Lagos state
governor and CAN national leader Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu who owns the
station together with its sister company radio continental was said to
have few weeks back stormed the station premises brewing with anger and
descended heavily on some contractors for slowing pace of work at the
new building which resulted into delay in the launching of the TVC news
24 hours channels.
As you are reading this story, all is set for the launching of the
new TVC news 24 hours channels, even as massive recruitment and
employment of man power for various position in the establishment is
ongoing.
However, we further gathered that to be able to complete favorably
with the likes of CNN and Al-Jazeera, foreign experts are being employed
to head key and highly technical positions in the new TVC news station.
Also, new state-of –the art facilities were said to have been moved
into the TVC news building, even as new offices of TVC news has been
opened in Kenya, South Africa, while that of Ghana is under
construction. Over 50 brand new cameras have been bought and the salary
package of staff is said to be very attractive.
