Skyz Metro FM

The station provides music, culture, news and current affairs to listeners in the Bulawayo metropolitan province and further at a 60km radius around the city. Most of its radio shows are mainly broadcast in iSiNdebele and English.

The station was received well by the people, businesses, organisations and artistes of the Bulawayo region and surrounding areas as it relates to their culture and music than any other station in the country[2].

The birth of Khulumani FM[3] in March 2018, which is owned by the state broadcaster got some station's listeners talking, where others thought that it was launched to directly compete with Bulawayo's first, some welcomed it as an additional flavour. Media critics from other regions accused the two Bulawayo radio stations for sounding more like South African radio stations due to the use of South Western Zimbabwean languages including iSiNdebele, Xhosa and Sotho among other Matabeleland languages, and also heavily playing Nguni languages music.

It has various interactive shows that engage the community around the region and beyond.

Skyz Metro has the best shows for all ages for Bulawayo people and those who love Bulawayo. It boasts some of the best DJs, presenters and newsreaders from the city including presenters like Nkokhelo Khumalo aka 'Khekhe', Khaya Moyo, Donna Ncube, Babongile Sikhonjwa, Benkosi BKay Maphosa, soulful Possenti Sikosana and Bulawayo's best Ndebele newsreader, Kundai Shamuyarira.

The station is arguably one of the best projects that ever happened in the city in recent years. It uses the tagline #Esabantu which translates to "For The People".
