Human Resource Manager,

Channels Television,

Lagos, Nigeria.

Dear Sir/Ma 

LETTER OF RESIGNATION

I wish to tender my Letter of Resignation as Rivers State Correspondent for Channels Television with immediate effect.

This had become inevitable following series of issues especially following the 2019 elections in Rivers State, especially as I insisted on standing for the truth against the subtle wishes and instruction from some powerful individual not to talk about the role allegedly played by a section of the security agencies in the polls,

Perhaps, to favor a candidate of choice. And on this matter I was invited before a Panel, before which I insisted that nobody can lure or intimidate me to report that which I know is untrue.Especially as I choose to report truth on any matter in the profession.

However, It was rather sad to attempt to force a Letter of Termination on me without due process not stating any grounds of infringement. A Letter I completely rejected and asked the Person handling to send back, while I turn in my resignation. This, therefore comes as a soft copy as the courier service delivers the hard copy.

I am utterly disappointed and wish to state that I will not allow any individual no matter how self acclaimed powerful to destroy my personal and professional goals over political sentiments that have always been denied or sheer wickedness without due considerations whatsoever.

Also, due to sustained psychological and emotional stress following over bearing interference and perceived interests (for lack of a better Phrase), in the Bureau, leading to some form of bad blood and negative energy, which began to affect my personal and professional Goals in the Organization, I am happy to tender my letter of resignation.

Emma Ereyi
