Contrary to allegations in some quarters, the Chief Executive Officer of TVC Communications; owners of TVC, TVC News, Max FM (Lagos and Abuja) and Adaba FM, Andrew Hanlon, yesterday stated that the jobs of all its 550 employees are safe and secure.

Hanlon made the announcement following reports, which suggested that 250 jobs were lost, due to arson attack on its studios in Ikosi-Ketu, Lagos last week.

He said: “The reference to 250 jobs related to those of our employees, who had been physically displaced, due to the fire at our premises. This does not mean those same employees had subsequently lost their jobs, due to the fire. All of our staff remain with us, and have merely now been relocated to temporary offices, while we build a bigger and better television studio complex.”

Hanlon expressed appreciation to viewers and listeners, advertisers and sponsors, who stood by them during the crisis, saying the firm will never forget their loyalty.
