Outside the borders of the Lagos metropolis, a few other states in the country like the ancient city of Ibadan can boast of having some of the most entertaining on-air personalities. Whenever anyone drives into that town for the first time and they are lucky enough to tune in to Splash 105.5FM while Kolade Dominate is on air within the hours of 10 pm – 1 am (Tuesday), 5 pm – 10 pm (Thursday), 10 pm – 12 midnight (Friday), I can place a bet on it that you will be addicted listening to him. Referred to as the golden voice of the southwest, Kolade has proven beyond a reasonable doubt that he knows the ropes.
A graduate of Mass Communication and Digital Multimedia Technology, alongside broadcasting, Kolade also has a history with the music industry as a performing artist. In 2015, he released a song titled Dominate featuring Oritsefemi, 2016, he had another single titled Olofofo produced by ID Cabasa.

In a broadcasting industry where OAPs with fake ascent and their rhetoric litters the scene, Kolade Dominate stands out as one of the best in the game. With regards to presentations and the sheer knowledge of all the happenings in the entertainment industry, Kolade is head and shoulders above most of his colleagues. According to him, “In 2018, I was recognized as one of the most influential entertainment personality in the southwest of Nigeria” – Kolade Dominate
