About Us


The idea of establishing a radio station (GERIN fm 95.5) came from the concern and passion of some Ilorin patriots for the development of the Emirate Community. Ilorin, being the headquarters of both the Ilorin Emirate and Kwara State; has grown from a pre-colonial town into an expanding metropolis. This growth, though desirable; has equally brought challenges that threatened the cultural heritage of the Ilorin Emirate. Besides, the growth is also opening up tremendous opportunities in all spheres of lives. This must be equally harnessed for our teeming youths.

Our Objectives


GERIN fm 95.5 was conceived as a community broadcasting station to serve as a rallying point for the people of the Ilorin Emirate and environs. Specifically, the Station will provide leadership in articulating the development NEEDS of the people; moderates their WANTS while vigorously promoting the consensus of the community on issues. It is also to serve the Ilorin Emirate community in providing timely, national and international news and information that are considered relevant to the community. The station shall identify and transmit local music and other music and entertainment materials in line with the cultural values of the people of the Ilorin residents.

The foregoing are listed below as specific objectives:

  • To promote the Ilorin language and culture towards retaining our cultural heritage in the context of contemporary society.
  • To disseminate information and analysis of issues and events that is of local, national and international importance.
  • To generate revenue, in line with the NBC guidelines on community broadcasting; through the sale of air-time and to promote other commercial activities like product exhibitions, shows, events and joint promotion of products and social activities.
