TV presenter, show host and media personality Bolanle Olukanni was on radio for the first time as a host and her experience was totally hilarious.
Bolanle says her best friend’s brother once advised her to be a radio host because according to him, she has a lovely voice.
Her first time wasn’t so bad, ‘it was even more special because I get to talk about issues that I care about and bring to forefront social issues affecting our communities’.
She first shared the photo below of herself on the job.
She then wrote: "STORY TIME!!!! When I was 16, I called my best friends house and her brother picked up the phone ( I had the biggest crush on him lol) .
"He says to me before handing the phone to her “you should consider being on radio, you have a sweet voice .
"I swooned lol and ofcourse my 16 year old self took to heart what he said. I decided to job shadow at a radio station while in Secondary School.
"I was living in Kenya then and remember avidly listening to the radio . I completely fell in love with radio and decided that I wanted to become a radio VJ. Today was my first time on radio as host and it was everything I thought it would be and more. It was even more special because I get to talk about issues that I care about and bring to forefront social issues affecting our communities .
"This is what I was made for. I’m so excited that @tlsdinitiative and I are bringing #connectandconversations to the radio waves #radiohost #radiovj"
