The Station Manager at Yinka Ayefele’s Fresh 106.9 FM in Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State, Mr David Ajiboye is dead.
A statement by Samson Akindele, announced the demise on behalf of the management of Fresh FM Nigeria and Merry Makers Band.
According to the statement, Ajiboye died on Sunday evening at an Ibadan hospital during a brief illness which lasted for a few days.
He was a foundation member of the music arm of Yinka Ayefele Limited as the publicist to Yinka Ayefele and his band.
Ajiboye assisted Yinka Ayefele as a partner and later as a management staff member of Fresh 105.9 FM, Ibadan, from the ideation period to fruition in 2015.
“We are indeed devastated by this sad event which has also affected our operations. Kindy bear with us at this trying time”, the statement added.
Meanwhile, the leadership of Nigeria Union of Journalists, NUJ Ekiti State Council has commiserated with Management and Staff of Fresh FM over the sudden death of the General Manager of the station in Ado Ekiti, Mr. David Ajiboye.
A statement by the state Chairman of the Council, Comrade Rotimi Ojomoyela and the secretary, Comrade Kayode Babatuyi describes the death of Ajiboye as a rude shock to the union, as he was a very diligent and humble journalist who had also shown rare support to NUJ since his deployment to Ekiti.
It became more pathetic because Ajiboye died at a time his life was blossoming.
We pray God to grant the immediate family of the deceased the fortitude to bear the irreparable loss, while we also pray God to continue to protect members of the union.
