OYO GOVERNMENT DEMOLISHES MULTI-MILLION NAIRA YINKA AYEFELE RADIO STATION

‘This Governor Ajimobi and his administration has no human face in governance. This is unfair and a callous act. See how a multi-million naira project is being destroyed. I am sure Ajimobi will one day reap the fruits of his wickedness To me I suspect a political vendetta’, a resident at the site said

However, a staff of the popular radio station who craved anonymity but also confirmed the development lamented, “they have destroyed the building; they have ruined multi-million naira investment’.

Penpushing made efforts to reach , an aide to Governor Abiola Ajimobi, on political matters,Morounkola Thomas but efforts proved abortive, while in the same vein, the State Commissioner for Information, Toye Arulogun could also not be immediately reached Sunday morning.

The Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), Oyo State Council in reaction to the demolition said, the union was highly disturbed, stressing that it was particularly worried that the exercise had to be carried out when the matter was still before the court.

Penpushing reports that, the statement jointly signed by Adewunmi Faniran (Chairman) and Bola Ogunlayi(Secretary), also expressed concern about what the fate of the workers of the establishment would be, as well as great loss of the owner of the station

‘The Oyo State Council therefore calls on the Government to ensure that no matter what, it comes to the aid of Fresh FM, which has been a pride of Ibadan in particular and Oyo State as a whole, by relocating them to another site and ensure smooth take off of their operations once again’, the statement emphasised

Meanwhile, as at the time of filing this reports, the management of Fresh FM is yet to react to the demolition exercise.
