Media Crisis:Former GM Vision FM Detained Over 10 Million Naira Scam




A former General Manager of vision FM Muhammad Iskeel has been detained over alleged 10 million Naira scam when he serves as general manager Vision FM Katsina.
It was exclusively gathered by the NIGERIAN TRACKER that the general manager was detained after the management of the vision media services tried to settle the matter amicably but the former General Manager of the radio station in Katsina refuses to comply.

When NIGERIAN TRACKER correspondent sought to know the reasons behind detaining the former General Manager of the vision FM in Katsina, the Chief operating officer of the stations in Abuja Malam Shuaibu Mungadi said the former GM Mr Iskeel has perpetrated acts inimical to the reputation of Vision Media services.

He said Iskeel has changed their rate card from 750 thousand Naira quarterly advert rate for a sponsored program to about 1.8 Million Naira.

Mungadi said the former General Manager in the year 2021 collected a quarterly programme from their client of about 10.6 million Naira.

He noted that since their rate card is 750 thousand the slots he collected for are supposed to be about 4 million Naira plus.

But he collected Over 10 Million Naira from their clients and remitted 4 million Naira to the station.

He noted that the matter was exposed when their client demanded for receipt of the transaction ,this is the point where the management of vision media services became aware of the fraud perpetrated by their former general manager.

Mungadi said in an effort to settle the matter inhouse mr Iskeel did not oblige and when he offered for resignation the station did not accept the resignation asking him to wait and clear the mess he brought to the station by denting its image in the eyes of its clients.

According to the Chief operating officer one of their operational vehicles disappeared from his hand when the station seek to know its whereabout.

The vision media services noted that at this point the management has no option than taking the matter to the police where he was taken to court and detained.

Security sources told NIGERIAN TRACKER that Vision media services took the case to the Zonal command of the Nigeria Police Force where Iskeel was taken to court and subsequently detained.

Mr Iskeel was said to have taken another appointment as Head  with Liberty FM in Kano which was recent thrown into crisis of survival.
