Top film/music Producer cum Director, Femi Lasode, has reacted to the recent death of AIT Television Founder Late Chief Raymond Dokpesi.

Lasode who spoke from his Lekki home in Lagos, recalled that the Late Dokpesi, "appreciated my audiovisual work and he invited me to work with him when he opened his Abuja Broadcast Station.

"He was a very kind man," said Femi Lasode, "he was aware of my controversial period at the end of my PMAN experience and invited me to work with him and the late Ladi Lawal in Abuja. He Introduced me to very influential people in Nigeria and we also worked on producing jingles for the late President Yar Adua.

"Dokpesi was special because he appreciated and encouraged talent. As an individual I don't poke my nose into other people's affairs so I really don't know much about the controversies he had in life, I simply tried to accomplish the tasks he asked me to do. 

"He was always on the look out for exceptional talent and was a very innovative individual, always wanting to explore anything new. I will miss him because he was a very kind hearted individual with a listening ear," added Lasode.

Chief Raymond Dokpesi, founder of DAAR  Communications Ltd owners of AIT Television and RayPower Fm died early this week in Abuja, Nigeria.
