LONDON get ready! A brand new, vibrant African radio station will be 
hitting the London airwaves, on 94.3 FM, on 23 May.
The high-profile launch, part of the Mayor of London's African week, will 
include African cultural troupe performances, music and appearances 
from wide range guest speakers. This event aims to wake and shake 
London up to the new African flavour.
Space Clottey, Project Manager at Voice of Africa Radio, says, "Things 
are buzzing at the studio of Voice of Africa Radio. All our presenters are 
extremely excited and cannot wait to release the amazing things we 
have in store for our listeners. Voice of Africa Radio will bring a new 
and interesting dimension to the FM dial on 94.3 and we wish to invite 
the business community to support by sponsoring and advertising on 
the station."
An unlicensed Voice of Africa Radio was set up on 1 January 2000 on 
FM to correct the exclusion and marginalisation of the African 
community from electronic media. However, in April 2003, Voice of 
Africa Radio decided to stop operations to seek a licence to function on 
a more appropriate basis.
At the moment VOAR broadcast live on www.voiceofafricaradio.com 
and Sky Digital channel 0192.
Voice of Africa Radio (VOAR) was awarded a five-year permanent FM 
license on 16 February 2006, after six years of tireless campaigning. 
VOAR is the first and only legally licensed African radio station in the 
UK.
Voice of Africa Radio will give listeners in London a savoury choice of 
African music, from zouk to kwaito to hi-life, as well as RnB and gospel. 
Programmes also include debates, community affairs, sport and talk 
shows.
