Plumtree Radio

A community radio outlet operating in the Plumtree district in the Matabeleland South region of Zimbabwe. The station, known as Radio Bukalanga, is one of several community radio services established to serve rural Zimbabwean populations, broadcasting at 100.9 MHz and serving the Empandeni and Ndolwane areas within the broader Plumtree locality. Community radio in Zimbabwe has played an important role in reaching residents in rural communities who have limited access to national broadcasters, a role that became particularly significant during periods of restricted movement such as the COVID-19 lockdowns. The station is part of a wider ecosystem of regional and community broadcasters operating alongside national outlets such as Radio Zimbabwe, Power FM, and ZiFM Stereo.
