This is the first Indigenous radio station in the city of Ibadan.

Lagelu, -- Oro a pata maja -- was the founder of "original" Ibadan, around the 17th or 18th century. A military legend and Yorubas' generalissimo from Ile Ife, he founded two of the three cities that eventually became the city of Ibadan. Eba Odan + Eba'dan = Ibadan. The first military commander of Ibadan, Lagelu left Ile Ife and founded Eba Odan. This city was peaceful and prosperous until it was ravaged by neighbouring towns and cities. A very old Lagelu and some of his people survived this attack. He then formed another city called Eba'dan on top of "Ori Yangi", now known as the Oja'ba in very close proximity to the ravaged city of Eba Odan. Shortly after, Lagelu died.
