ESAMA of Benin Kingdom, Chief Gabriel Igbinedion, yesterday, vowed that those who burnt his television studio would not go unpunished.

It would be recalled the television studio of the Independent Television,  owned by the Benin High Chief, was, penultimate Saturday, gutted by fire. Igbinedion, who spoke while inspecting the burnt studio, yesterday, said it was senseless for anybody to attribute the cause of the fire to power surge.

He disclosed that he received several threats through text messages and telephone calls about a possible attack and reported same to security agencies in the state. He added that he does not make any profit from the station but decided to fund its operations because of his desire to educate and enlighten the people about happenings in the state.

Igbinedion promised to build a new digital television studio within 60 days.
