A well known journalist, Theo Ukpaa, who was until a few days ago, a staff of Linda Ikeji TV as Head of Programmes, has been fired for allegedly raping, repeatedly, a former model who is now a mother and a wife. The former model, Emily Samuel took to her instagram page to reveal all that happened years ago when she saw the wedding photographs of Ukpaa who recently tied the knot at a beach wedding. According to Emily, the incident happened when she was a naive 16 year old model and needed some coaching lessons which Ukpaa, then a staff of SoundCity, offered to help her with.

Statement from Miss Linda Ikeji I personally wanted to let everyone know that Theo Ukpaa, who was Head of Programmes at Linda Ikeji TV is no longer a staff of the company. His job with my company was terminated on Monday August 27th just a day after I read the heartbreaking story of Emilia Samuel. The general public is therefore advised not to transact any business with him in the name of Linda Ikeji TV as anyone who does it, does so at his/her own risk. Thank you Linda
