NICHOLAS Okoh, primate of the Church of Nigeria, Anglican Communion, has approved the appointment of Folu Olamiti, a renowned Media Consultant and Fellow of Nigerian Guild of Editors,  and eight others as management board of the Anglican Church Television.

Olamiti was former editor and group managing director of Nigerian Tribune where he spent about 35 years.

Okoh, in a letter dated June 7, 2017, and made available to journalists in Abuja, said Olamiti would serve as the chairman of the board.

He named Bishop Blessing Enyindah  as the deputy chairman while Bishop Chidi Oparanjiaku, Venerable Dade Sadare and G. T. N. Ajakpo would serve as members.

The primate said other members of the board are P.S. Nmadu, T.B . Akinyeye, Bisi Amagada and Ngozi Adighije.

Okoh said the appointments followed the reconstitution of the management board of the church’s television station.

According to him, the responsibility of the new board included managing the affairs of the television station.

“You are to deal with the problems of the television station and bring up and execute after our approval, appropriate ways of improving its operation. You are also to put in your best towards securing strong financial base for its future”, he said.
