"About a week ago, we had a programme that deteriorated into something extremely ugly. Where two guests went at each others throats. It was out of control. There are people out there who thought I should have done a better job in controlling the guests. And I agree. Looking back, probably, hindsight is always 20-20 and in a live broadcast it is always difficult but I agree. I'm man enough, to man up to that and if there is anyone who was aggrieved by the show, anyone who felt it was not up to par, I did not do a good job, I apologise, so that we can move on. It was regrettable in most parts, but then again it was one show out of 300 shows we have done here at KTN for the last 3 years, 300 shows. It was regrettable."

After the apology, Jeff Koinange them announced that it will be the last Jeff Koinange Live show on KTN.
