The Supervising Producer, Cable
News Network (CNN) Africa, Stephanie Busari, has challenged blogger, Kemi
Olunloyo to provide evidence of working for the company for two decades.
Busari issued the challenge after
Olunloyo claimed to have a 20-year history with the Atlanta, Georgia-based
popular cable station.
Olunloyo, who is the daughter of
former Oyo State Governor Omololu Olunloyo, took to Twitter on Sunday to berate
some of her followers for doubting her credentials.
She has come under attack
recently for accusing ace photographer, Busola Dakolo of lying about her rape
accusations against Senior Pastor of Commonwealth of Zion Assembly (COZA),
Pastor Biodun Fatoyinbo.
Dakolo, who is the wife of
sensational singer Timi Dakolo, alleged that Fatoyinbo raped her when she was
16 in 2000 in Ilorin.
Olunloyo said she came to the
conclusion that Dakolo was lying after investigations, which some social media
users scoffed at.
She wrote: “Some of these fools
following me have no idea I spent 20 years @cnn in 5 different capacities. They
don’t even know that the CNN they watch here is not exact same as CNN USA.”

However, Busari, who is the West
Africa Bureau Lead for CNN, debunked Olunloyo’s claim, saying there was no
evidence to back her claim.
She wrote: “I have not seen any
evidence of this work for CNN beyond a few rambling interviews for some of the
shows in 2009. Please enlighten me @HNNAfrica on your 20 year history with
CNN.”

Rather than provide evidence, Kemi went on to report Busari
