Duma FM To Go On Air In November

Duma FM, one of the three radio stations licensed by the National Broadcasting Board (NBB) early this year will go on air in November.

"Hopefully without fail we will start broadcasting by the first week of November. We are certain that we will be available on air," said the chief executive officer of the Duma FM, Moreri Gabakgore. He said that their license required them to be operational within 12 months after they have been awarded the license, "and we still have up to at least April 2008 to be on air." The station has been awarded a 15-year license.

Other radio stations that were awarded broadcasting licenses are Gabz FM and Yarona FM. The new radio station (Duma FM) was supposed to have gone on air at the end of September but it failed to meet the deadline due to unavailability of equipment.
