BUKEDDE TV, owned by the Vision Group, has started broadcasting news. The 30-minute bulletin dubbed Agataliiko Nfufu (immaculate) will run daily from 10:00pm to 10:30pm.

The maiden programme was telecast on Monday.

The station’s news editor, Semei Wessaali, yesterday promised the viewers an informative and descriptive package.

“We are going to add value to the news. The station will not simply give the news, but will also give answers to the ‘so what’ questions. Our bulletin is added value compared what other television stations offer,” he stated.

According to Wessaali, Bukedde TV entertains and informs people about events in the region, country and entire world.

The station has since unveiled four people who will present the bulletin in pairs.

They are Tera Kaaya, Robinah Sanyu, Richard Kayiira and Sumaya Muwonge, all of whom have worked with Bukedde newspaper.

With the slogan “Tiivi y’omuntu wabulijjo”, Bukedde TV went on air last year.

The first anniversary is set for October 31.

The TV station is popular for movies, which are translated into Luganda, soaps and wrestling, among other programmes.

To interact with the news editor, viewers can call 0752602033 or 0414337785 or send an e-mail to agataliiko@newvision.co.ug.
