Popular musician and broadcaster, Yinka Ayefele has made a revelation.

 

According to him, he has never dismissed any of his employees since establishing Fresh 105.9 FM ten years ago.

 

Ayefele made this known on Wednesday during a press conference to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Fresh FM.

 

The music star, who owns the radio station, recounted how his journey to success began after a life-changing accident in 1997.

 

“I worked at Radio Nigeria, Ibadan, producing jingles. I used the money I earned to buy a Beetle car, and on my way to Abeokuta in 1997, I had a terrible accident. That incident changed my life completely,” he said.

 

He explained that Fresh FM started as a live-streaming project on Facebook, which became popular among fans abroad before evolving into a licensed radio station.

 

“I started live streaming on Facebook, and my fans outside Nigeria loved it. That gave me the idea to start a radio station to change the face of broadcasting,” Ayefele said.

 

The broadcaster also recalled how security agents once invaded his office demanding to see his broadcast licence.
