The Oyo State chapter of Freelance and Independent Broadcasters Association of Nigeria (FIBAN), has commended the state’s governor, Engr. Seyi Makinde for releasing 100million naira for the completion of the moribund Atiba FM in Oyo town.
In a statement credited to Oyo State FIBAN Chairman, Comrade Seun Awodele as released through his Special Aide on Media and Publicity, Amb. Taiwo Oguntoye, the governor was described as a promise keeper.
Seun Awodele eulogizes Governor Makinde for looking at the direction of the long time cries of the people of Oyo town on Atiba FM. According to Awodele, “Mr Governor promised to make Atiba FM work again and we are so pleased with the news of the 100m fund released to reposition the radio station for the benefit of Oyo State citizenry. This would be another grace and opportunity for us as broadcasters to show case our gifts through this platform”.
Awodele, however, admonished all concerned in the execution of the project to judiciously put into use the fund made available so as to get the station running as soon as possible.
In the same vein, Com. Awodele also congratulated His Imperial Majesty, Oba Dr. Lamidi Olayiwola Atanda Adeyemi III , Iku Baba Yeye, the Alaafin of Oyo for witnessing great societal developments in the ancient town under the administration of Governor Seyi Makinde.
