Radio 4 has won two prestigious broadcast awards at the maiden Uganda Broadcasting and Digital Awards that took place Saturday night in Kampala.
Radio 4 stole the spotlight at the event by winning the Best Radio in football commentary and the Best Radio Station in News (English).
Speaking shortly after receiving the award, Radio 4’s Station Manager, Kungu Al-mahadi Adam, said the win validates the work that has been put in by the station’s management and staff.
“I think it’s a validation of everything that we’ve put into the quality of our content on air: great research work, great investment in personnel, equipment, and welfare. Everything just comes out,” he said.
A visibly ecstatic Kungu urged listeners to expect more from the station.
“You know they say that the reward of good work is more work. It’s some sort of assignment on us that we have to keep getting better,” he said.
“We know that we owe our listeners that top-notch, painstakingly planned content on the radio, and we are promising them we will give them more.
“We will never let them down. They voted for us, and we have emerged as the best radio station of the year in football commentary and English News in the entire country, not just in Kampala alone.
“So, we thank them. We appreciate them. We won’t let them down.”
