Al Oula TV Executives Fired Over Delayed Broadcast of King Mohammed VI’s Speech

Tuesday 10 November 2020, by Kamal

Officials of the national television channel Al Oula have been dismissed by the management, following the incident that occurred during the programming of the speech of King Mohammed VI, scheduled for November 6th last.

A real earthquake is expected in the coming days within the National Broadcast and Television Company, says the site Kech24, which points out that for now, only a director and a news director have been dismissed.

According to the same source, this is a serious professional fault, in relation to a national event of great importance. The non-compliance with health measures and the lack of proactivity were at the origin of these dismissals.

This setback is likely to cost the jobs of several officials of the national channel, or even lead to changes at the head of the institution, the media specifies.
