I'm not your run-of-the-mills television freak or
enthusiast. Due largely to the nature of my job, which is basically guided by
the need to beat deadlines, I hardly have time for over-indulgence in leisure
and other niceties. Whereas my wife and kids occasionally feast on the
television screen for either of their usual sops- Zee World, or Nickelodeon,
yours sincerely would always lock himself up in the study writing an editorial
or a column.
Yet, since January this year (2018), I have occasionally squeezed
a few minutes of my limited time in my little room to watch CHANNELS
Television's flagship programme, SUNRISE
DAILY. On occasions, viewers are treated to a crossfire which usually features
a chieftain of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and another of the
opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who are made to argue on a topical
issue of public concern in a moderated atmosphere.
