A newly-established online radio station, Agidigbo Radio, went up in flames at Monatan area of Ibadan on Saturday.
The radio station was said to have been under lock and key as of the time of the incident.
The Director, Oyo State Fire Service, Moshood Adewuyi, who confirmed the incident, said the fire station was alerted around 11 am.
Adewuyi said, “It is true that the studio of the online radio station caught fire this morning; the place was under lock and key on the arrival of our men. None of the workers of the radio station was around at the time of the outbreak.
“You know, a studio is always padded with foam. That aggravated the fire.”
