2. Executive summary
Felma Media Media LTD was commissioned to assess the performance of radio stations in
eastern Uganda.
In this report, the researcher (herein referred to as Felma Media Agency LTD) used field surveys
through observation and face to face interview methods to get data in this research. This research
was carried out in Eastern districts of Uganda on fifty six (56) radio stations in the region.
One of the big challenges which limit effective performance of radio stations in the region is
constant power blackout and followed by poor management.
NBS radio is the leading radio station in the area; followed by BAABA fm and open gate Mbale.
Capital radio has listeners in the whole region due to its large coverage.
The researcher compared the strength of different radio stations found in the same district like
Eastern voice and Jogo Fm whose target audience is mainly Bugiri and Busia district.
The audience of Bukedde TV in the region is increasingly getting small while that of NTV is
increasingly growing big. NBS TV is also attracting a big audience in the region.
