Alabo James who commended the station and the Corporation for its quality broadcast to the people, expressed delight that Creek FM is back on air after the windstorm that destroyed its mast and antennae on March Thirty this year.
He however stressed that fast tracking the provision of facilities and equipment for Creek FM and the Zonal Station’s permanent site in the Bayelsa State capital would further boost the operations and services of the Corporation to the people of the Area.
