Ramadan Lecture, which Fresh 105.9FM owned by Ayefele organised on
Tuesday, in Ibadan.
“Our station, Fresh 105.9FM had invited popular Islamic preacher,
Alhaji Muideen Ajani Bello as the guest preacher at our annual Ramadan
Lecture, which had over 4,000 people in attendance and because of this,
some naïve minds went to town to spread the rumour about Ayefele’s
conversion.”
Ajiboye stated further that the station is for everybody irrespective
of your religion, race or colour. “We believe it’s part of our social
responsibility to organise such a spiritual rebirth programme to
sensitise our Muslim listeners on the ideals of Islam most especially in
this holy season.”
