The Advertising Regulatory Council of Nigeria (ARCON) has announced the dissolution of the secretariat of its vetting panel, the Advertising Standards Panel (ASP), and the suspension of the Director, and Deputy Director, Regulations, for approving one of the concepts of the controversial ‘All Eyes on The Judiciary’ advert, that failed vetting guidelines.
Dr Olalekan Fadolapo, the Director-General of the Advertising Regulatory Council of Nigeria (ARCON), announced the Panel’s dissolution in a statement released Tuesday.
Dr Lekan Fadolapo also ordered the removal of all the concepts of the controversial advert, being exposed across the country.
Highlighting that not all of the advertisements were endorsed by the ASP, Fadolopo acknowledged an error in judgement concerning approving one of the concepts.
“This advertisement failed to adhere to the vetting guidelines set by the Panel.
The ASP functions as a Statutory Panel under the Council’s purview, tasked with ensuring that advertisements comply with the laws of the Federation and adhere to the Code of Advertising Ethics in the profession.
