The Ogun State Government has delivered a 5-kilowatt state-of-the-art transmitter to the State Broadcasting Corporation (OGBC).

Gov. Dapo Abiodun signed the approval for the transmitter purchase in December 2023, according to Mrs. Toyin Sogbesan, the General Manager of OGBC.

She noted that the 5 kw transmitter, manufactured to specification on March 19, 2024, by RVR Elletronica, Bologna, Italy, was delivered to OGBC on April 6, 2024, by their country representative, Ecalpemos Nig Ltd., Kaduna.

Sogbesan said the transmitter will go a long way in enhancing OGBC’s reach and providing unparalleled service to its numerous listeners by ushering in a new era of broadcasting excellence.

The new 5-kilowatt transmitter, which will replace the old 35kw transmitter, when installed, will boost an impressive broadcasting range, extending OGBC signal coverage to previously underserved areas and ensuring crystal-clear reception for its loyal audience, she said.

“The benefits of the new transmitter goes beyond mere technical capabilities as it will expand OGBC’s reach, with the aim to become an integral part of the daily lives of residents in and around Ogun State by providing them with high-quality programming, up-to-date news, and engaging content.

“With this news transmitter, the era of epileptic transmission is over. OGBC can now run at its full capacity. The people of Ogun East and Ogun West will be better informed of government activities and programs. OGBC’s coverage areas will be enhanced.

“Our clients will now have greater value for their money with the wider coverage areas of the new transmitter. All our flagship and late-night shows will be back on air. No more shutting down because of the obsolete transmitter,” Sogbesan said.

She expressed gratitude to Gov. Abiodun and Mr. Tokunbo Talabi, Secretary to the State Government, for the gesture.
