The ex-Chairman of DAAR Communication, owners of African Independent Television and Ray Power FM, Chief Raymond Dopkesi, on Tuesday sent season’s greetings cards to President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo.
Dokpesi, granted bail since December 14, is standing trial at a Federal High Court in Abuja on six-counts of N2.1 billion money laundering and corruption pressed against him by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
But in an apparent seeking of respite, a team from his establishment sent a gigantic Eid el Maulud, Christmas and New Year cards to President Buhari and his Vice Osinbajo.
Those on the delegation, led by the current Chairman of the establishment, Mr. Raymond Dokpesi Jnr. included, the Managing Director, Mr. Tony Akiotu; Managing Director, DAAR News Services, Imoni Amarere; Head, Human Resource Paulyn Ugbodaga; and Head, Corporate Communications, Kunle Onime.
The Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina and a Director of Information, Mr. Justin Abuah received the card for the President just as Senior Special Assistant, Documentation in the Vice President’s office, Mr. Sesan Adeboyejo also received the one for Osinbajo.
The delegation had earlier sought the presence of President Buhari who was not readily available for them.
Meanwhile, the goodwill message on the card reads: “The Chairman, Board of Directors, Management and staff of DAAR Communications Plc, proprietors and operators of Raypower FM, Africa Independent Television and Faaji FM, most heartily felicitate with Your Excellency, President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR and family on the occasions of Eid Maulud, Christmas and New Year 2016.”
