By Praise Jesusanya

Students of Multimedia Technology from the School of Basic Studies and Multimedia Technology at the Federal College of Agriculture, Moor Plantation, Ibadan, embarked on an educational excursion to LeadCity 89.1FM at Lead City University, Ibadan, Oyo State, on Wednesday, 15 July, 2026. The visit provided them with valuable practical exposure to the operations of the media industry and complemented their classroom learning.

The students, led by the Dean of the School, Dr. Mrs. B. A. Alabi, with the approval of the College Provost, Professor Jonathan J. Atungwu, were warmly received by Mr. Adekunle Oba, a Presenter at the radio station, who guided them through the day's activities and exposed them to the different areas of the media industry.

During the interactive session, Mr. Oba explained how radio, television and magazine platforms operate and highlighted the unique roles each plays in informing, educating and entertaining the public. He also spoke on the professional standards that guide media practice and stressed the importance of accuracy, responsibility and ethical conduct in broadcasting.

The students were also taken through the practical aspects of media operations, where they gained firsthand experience of how broadcasting is carried out. They were advised to always uphold the rules and regulations of the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) and maintain professionalism while carrying out their duties in any media organisation.

The excursion was both informative and inspiring, as it exposed the students to the realities of the broadcasting profession beyond the classroom. It also strengthened their practical knowledge and deepened their appreciation of the media industry.

The students expressed their appreciation to the College for organising the excursion, describing it as a rewarding and memorable experience. They further expressed hope for more educational visits that will continue to broaden their knowledge and prepare them for future careers.

FCAIB, the First, the Best!
