The station's main objective is to bridge the gap between the existing station and the populace in Ibadan by fulfilling the major responsibilities of broadcasting, entertainment and public enlightenment. In view of this, it was rebranded the "Integrity Station" or "Radio Omoluabi" in Yoruba on 25 August 2008 by the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission (ICPC).

Marathon

The Splash FM/ICPC Integrity Marathon is organized annually by Splash FM and the ICPC. It celebrates the station's anniversary and sensitizes the public to the fight against corruption in Nigerian society.[2][3][4]
