By The Ga-Rankuwa Mail Reporter
Deputy Minister in the Presidency, Kenny Morolong and the Board of the Media Development and Diversity Agency (MDDA), will officially unveil new state-of-the-art studios at TUT FM and Tshwane FM in Pretoria on Friday, 08 August 2025.
Morolong will deliver a keynote address at the unveiling of the digitised studios, which were made possible by funding from the MDDA as part of its mandate to support community media in Gauteng and across the country.
TUT FM 96.2 is a community radio station based at the Soshanguve South campus of Tshwane University of Technology, which broadcasts within a 50km radius to a listenership of 61 000.
The station targets youth aged between 15 and 35 and broadcasts in six languages i.e. English, Setswana, Sepedi, IsiZulu, Tshivenda and Xitsonga.
Tshwane FM is the official student radio station of Tshwane University of Technology and broadcasts in a 50km radio across Greater Tshwane, Atteridgeville, Laudium, Mamelodi, Centurion, Midrand, and parts of northern Johannesburg on the 93.6 FM frequency.
It is unclear whether Ga-Rankuwa FM, which broadcasts from the George Mukhari Hospital, will receive help from MDDA to refurbish its studios at Nurses Home.
The Ga-Rankuwa Mail will attend the launch of the event and will bring updates.
