(ERGO) – The call this week (5-11 March 2026) to Radio Ergo’s independent audience feedback platform again focused mainly on the impact and intense hardships caused by ongoing drought. A small number of callers in scattered areas across the country reported some rainfall and spoke of anticipated recovery.

The calls also included people engaging with Radio Ergo’s thematic programmes on livestock, agriculture, health, environment and climate change, and other topical issues.
