Since 1995, Radio Khwezi, which means the morning star in isiZulu, has been the daily companion of individuals and families, most of whom are from rural communities in the Natal midlands and north coast areas.Radio Khwezi works together with the communities it serves, to develop, produce and broadcast quality programmes that aim to educate and uplift the listeners. It draws on the rich talent in their community for various programmes including the rich voices of local choirs and gospel artists.
95% of the programmes are in isiZulu
We truly believe that radio can be for everyone, no exception. UB FM is a radio made for the community, pure and simple.
Local people steer everything we do, and are involved in every possible role at the station; from technical support & audio production to scheduling & programming and everything in between. The vast majority of presenters are from right here and for many, UB FM is their first real taste of radio broadcasting.
The idea for UB FM was born in 2005, and between 2007 and 2010 we completed 12 short-term (one-month) broadcasts, an eye-opening and amazing experience that improved each time.
Vukani Community Radio is based in Cala and Komani (Queenstown). It was established in 1993 by Cala University Students Association (CALUSA) and broadcasted for the first time on 09 April 2006.
