A former governor of Oyo State, Otunba Alao Akala, has blamed the demolition of part of Yinka Ayefele’s Fresh FM structure in Ibadan on a gap in communication between operators of the media outfit and officials of the Oyo State Government.

Akala said this while responding to questions from journalists after submitting his expression of interest and nomination forms at the National Secretariat of the All Progressives Congress in Abuja on Tuesday.

Officials of the Oyo State government had demolished a portion of the building housing Fresh FM, a private radio outfit owned by a musician, Yinka Ayefele, said to be critical of the Oyo State government.

Akala said,

“I think the demolition of the radio station, was just due to a communication gap between the government and the owner of the radio station.

“And I want to tell you that; that has been resolved. I want to put it on record and I am not lying, I will tell you the truth. I own a radio station (Parrot FM, Ibadan) in Oyo State too. A similar letter was written to the radio station and it was submitted to me.

“When I saw it, I said look, go to the local level — I am talking about the management of the radio station and settle your issue. I think it was just a lack of communication and that has been resolved.”
