Governor Makinde Commiserates With Yinka Ayefele Gifts Him Brand-New SUV(Photos) by MistyDense(op): 5:53pm On Aug 19, 2025
Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, on Tuesday, presented a brand-new Sports Utility Vehicle (SUV) to popular gospel singer, broadcaster, and Chairman of Fresh FM 105.9, Dr. Yinka Ayefele, following last Friday’s fire outbreak that razed parts of the Music House complex in Ibadan.

The inferno, which gutted sections of the media house, destroyed property worth millions of naira, leaving Ayefele and his team counting heavy losses.

Speaking during the presentation at the Music House, Challenge, Ibadan, Governor Makinde—represented by the Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Matters, Otunba Ademola Ojo—commended Ayefele for his resilience and enduring contributions to the media and entertainment industry in Oyo State and Nigeria at large.

He said:  “On behalf of Governor Seyi Makinde and the Oyo State Government, we are here to commiserate with you. You remain a symbol of perseverance and inspiration to millions of Nigerians. This gesture is a token of support to encourage you to keep pushing forward.”

Ayefele, who was visibly moved by the governor’s intervention, received the keys to the SUV amid gratitude and emotional reflection on the devastating losses caused by the fire.

Governor Makinde had earlier visited the station a day after the incident to personally sympathize with Ayefele and assess the extent of the damage.

Congratulations to The Gospel Singer, May God compensate him for the loss.
However, methink the governor would have instead, rebuilt the studio for him instead of the car. I believe Yinka has more than one car and can always use his cars. Rebuilding the studio should have been the priority.

Congratulations to Yinka Ayefele, he has paid his dues. He never allowed his condition to define his life, I am always happy reading about him.


Thank God Governor Seyi Makinde remembered him, thank you sir.


And this is to all Nigerian youths reading my comment, don't give up, God have not given up on you, please listen and listen attentively, if you are born into a poor or average family in Nigeria, to break the yoke of family poverty and financial rat-race, do any of the below:


1.) If you have the talent, by every means get into entertainment industry; music, comedy, skit making using social media platforms (don't mind what people will say), learn music instruments, movie industry, Radio/TV presenting, Journalism, etc.


2.) If you have the talent, don't let it waste, get into sports; football, athletics (running, jumping, etc), basketball, boxing, etc


3.) Japa; yes you heard me well, by any means possible Japa as early as possible don't wait till the door closes on you. If you can sell your family land sell and please make sure u use it to migrate abroad asap


4.) Get into content creation; be it video skits, blogging, ebook writing, etc, just find a way to get in. Its a good way of building a passive income that may outlive you if done properly.

If I have the time and zeal may write on this to help youths here.


5.) Get into IT; programming, coding, web design, App design/development, AI, graphics design, etc, just take it serious and make sure you are very very good in any part you decided to major on. Use online resources to improve your skills. Go on x and find mentors and follow and reach out to them. Get your portfolio on GitHub, explore upwork, fiverr, and dnt ignore LinkedIn.


6.) Go and learn a high in demand handwork as soon a possible, better before you clock 30.

Auto-rewire electrician, HVAC, carpentry and add some modernity to your skill, plumbing, forklift operation, crane operation, fashion designing with seriousness and passion, cooking/baking.



These are the fastest ways to break away from family poverty without waiting for a paid job or miracle.


Act fast, there is no time. Stop complaining and start acting from now.



Wishing you guys all the best

Amen and you too

I don't know how some of these our political leaders reason. They reason like they don't have common sense. If I were Ayefele, I would just sell that car, add some money and rebuild that place

I'm tired of the whole life as I am. My strength has failed me. I can't carry on again cos I'm weak. Very weak.
Why is life like this?
Why?

I can't blame anyone for taking their lives,. I'm down, I'm low, very low in spirit.

Property that housed source of income got burnt and SUV is given as a gift pls can the car replace the burnt property?
Re: Governor Makinde Commiserates With Yinka Ayefele Gifts Him Brand-New SUV(Photos) by Ashirioluwa:
The way our government officials are using public money as if it is their personal money baffles me.

In western world, they won’t give free car or house, rather they will give access to low interest rates loans.
Re: Governor Makinde Commiserates With Yinka Ayefele Gifts Him Brand-New SUV(Photos) by Neddstark: 7:20pm On Aug 19, 2025
Yinka Ayefele is doing very well for himself. There are thousands of unemployed in his state. Alleviating poverty not gifting those already doing great should be the priority of the government. Unfortunately, part of the jobless Nigerians will insult me for my opinion.
Re: Governor Makinde Commiserates With Yinka Ayefele Gifts Him Brand-New SUV(Photos) by appleous:
A mans place of business got burnt, the governor bought him a car.

Is this a dark joke or mockery?

How does he expect Aiyefele to drive the car?

Makinde, this must be a nothing but a mad joke!!!

Also, this isn't the first or second time that radio station is getting burnt.

Even fuel stations don't go up in flames with such regularity, so Aiyefele, do you have something to tell us?

Oga, please don't ask me such question. Try to be objective and respectful. Where in my comment did I mention he can't do both?. Did the media disclose to you that he's doing both?
I only made my comment based on the reportage and you're here saying what I can't understand.

The governor should instead encourage him and others to get comprehensive insurance.

Other people had fire accidents also and the governor didn't send them gifts...

Bro...before you talk about life being low, your Spirit being low , I want to ask you, what is it that you have allowed in your lifehuh?

Listen, life can never offer you anything, talk more of in this end time where evil prevails , you have to take everything my violence...

I don't mean being physically violent but Spiritually violent, for you to be alive today is a testimony that there is a huge assignment to do , and is only you that will do it...

Brace up, dust your Spirit, and move on, your weakness is not inspired by your God for he didn't create you for weakness..

Listen, speak to the spiritual realms , you are not weak, God knows your existence, he will see you through....but remember, you are not the only one in this case, so fight a good fight of faith and welcome to a new level....in Christ Jesus Amen...

This show of empathy and support is indeed a welcome development but wrongly channelled.

The devastation that occurred can't be remedied by merely offering a car gift while the studios remain in ruins.

The amount spent on this luxury car should have been channeled to rebuilding the burnt down studios.


All the same, at all, at all naim bad pass.

We have poor quality leaders. They used public money anyhow. Is he the only one that will loose house in fire ? If it is flood now, it is understandable. Government have no business doing this gifting. His insurance should helped him not government money.
