Due to the controversy over
the partial demolition of Yinka Ayefele’s Music House in Ibadan, Oyo state
gubernatorial aspirant, Mr Joseph Tegbe waded into the matter, seeking a civil
resolution.
The partial demolition of
radio station on Sunday, 19 September by the Oyo State government generated
much public outcry as it seemed as if the State governor, His Excellency Abiola
Ajimobi was personally involved in the matter.
While the state government
has insisted that the popular entertainer did break the law because he started
his radio station without relevant approval by the government, many were not
satisfied with the explanation.
Ayefele approached the
court on the issue and hearing has been fixed for September 12, 2018.
However, last week
Thursday, Mr. Tegbe led the musician to Governor’s Office for a meeting that he
facilitated. From immediate observations when it was concluded, it seemed to
have yielded fruits of an amicable resolution. Governor Ajimobi and Yinka
Ayefele came out of the meeting looking pleased. It is hopeful that all matters
surrounding the musician’s radio station will be resolved satisfactorily.
Joseph Olasunkanmi Tegbe, a
civil engineer and Senior Partner with KPMG, is a governorship aspirant under
the All Progressives Congress (APC). He is currently vying for the party’s
ticket for the 2019 governorship elections in Oyo state.
