Prophet Sam Olu-Alo, the Planter of Christ Apostolic Church (CAC) Adamimogo Grace of Mercy Prayer Mountain Worldwide, has felicitated with Ekiti State Governor, Mr Biodun Oyebanji, on his Governor of the Year award in Community Development by the Independent Newspapers.
The church leader also announced the commencement of operation of his newly established radio station, Adamimogo 107.1FM, Ido-Ekiti, from Thursday, May 9, and the dedication of the station on Saturday, May 25.
The Prophet, in a statement by Toyin Anisulowo-led Adamimogo Media Support Group, commended the Governor for his leadership qualities and immense development strides in the state, describing the award as befitting.
According to the Chief Operating Officer of Adamimogo Communications Limited, Mr Babatunde Bamigboye (aka Omo Edema), Adamimogo 107.1FM, Ido-Ekiti, will deliver quality programmes that will satisfy the yearnings of radio listeners in Ekiti and beyond.
Bamigboye said: “We aim to provide enriching content that caters to the diverse tastes and interests of our listeners. We want to connect with our audience on a meaningful level and offer them the best in radio entertainment, education and information.”
The Olojudo of Ido-Ekiti, Oba Ayorinde Ilori-Faboro, traditional ruler of Ido-Ekiti, who is also the Chairman of Ekiti Council of Traditional Rulers, thanked Prophet Olu-Alo for establishing the radio station in the town, which is Olu- Alo’s country home.
“This radio station is situated within the vicinity of the Oba’s palace. Whatever we are doing will easily get to you. Our son who has done this for us, who is God sent, Prophet Sam Olu-Alo, God will continue to bless him and his star will continue to shine,” the monarch stated.
“Our prayer is that God will continue to raise children like him in this country. God will make him a good example to all other Ekiti children to always come home and give back to and develop their communities. As he is developing his home town and assisting the people. On behalf of all the sons and daughters of Ido-Ekiti and Ekiti state in general, I thank you.”
Veteran broadcast journalist, Mr Layi Oyawa, who has been appointed as the General Manager of the new radio station, praised Prophet Olu-Alo for establishing the station and for his unwavering commitment towards impacting the lives of people in society.
