Owner of Brila FM, Larry Izamoje was once a cab driver in Lagos.
Larry presented a sports program on OGBC (Ogun State Broadcasting Corporation) back then although he was resident in Lagos. This made him a frequent plier of the Lagos-Abeokuta expressway for about six years and during this time, the Volkswagen beetle he was using caught fire three times.

When he later changed to a passat car, one day while he was travelling with a friend, they decided to park and ease themselves and in the process of opening the door it fell into the gutter.
There was also a time someone placed his hand on the boot and the body of the boot gave way. He had to use a sticker to cover that spot.
To make ends meet, he eventually became a cab driver (Kabu Kabu driver). While going to OGBC to present programmes, he would pick passengers on the road for a fee.
This is now history as he his now the multi-millionaire owner of Africa's first sports radio station Brila Fm.
