Yarona FM commits to royalties payment

Station Manager, Owen Rampha told Arts & Culture that the organisation has always paid its dues and currently does not owe COSBOTS any royalties. Speaking to Arts & Culture on the sidelines of the YAMAS nominees launch on Tuesday, Rampha said the radio station has been consistently paying ever since it received its first royalty licence.

“We are committed as a radio station to paying royalties. We receive our royalties bill every single financial year and we ensure that we pay accordingly. As it is, we currently owe them nothing. When COSBOTS started operating, I can confirm to you that Yarona FM was the first Radio station to sign the COSBOTS licence fee contract,” Rampha said.
