Terminated FBC CEO Riyaz Sayed-Khaiyum Refutes Salary Claims

Terminated Fijian Broadcasting Corporation chief executive officer Riyaz Sayed-Khaiyum has refuted claims he was paid $32,000 in salary per month and more than $304,000 during the COVID-19 year.
Newly appointed FBC Board chair Ajay Amrit, while announcing Mr Sayed-Khaiyum’s termination through a press release on Monday, claimed that he was paid more than the Prime Minister and received more than $30,000 a month.
“The chairperson has been reported to have said that I was paid $32,000 a month in salary. This is absolutely false. Under my most recent three-year contract, which was approved by the board in late December last year, I was paid nowhere near what has been falsely reported,” Mr Sayed-Khaiyum said.
