According to Toye, This isn’t a fresh case and letters were written to the Music house.

“14th of June, 2017 a request for approval was sent to Music House and 22 other radio stations in Oyo state. There are basic things I want us to understand, – It’s not a fresh case, so letters were written, reminder letter were written, finally they came up with their building plan. When government saw the plan – we got to the site with the Music house personnel and we found out;

1. The building size measured 29.7m by 21.6m on ground as against the 11.925m by 10.2m in the survey plan. Music house had extended, had taken more than it was given.

Explaining further, Toye said the building has been approved since 2008, but according to him,

“it doesn’t matter even if they say government approved it. Government has the right to correct its mistake and we got petitions from the residents and we also got petitions because in the last 9 months, 3 fatal accidents have happened there.”

Toye also revealed that there are a lot of things in the building that wasn’t there at the time of the plan. He cited that that

“The approval was for an office complex. Now if you turn it to a studio, you have to erect a mast and a mast is development. That mast has fallen before, we were just lucky.” Mr Toye said.
