Ownership and governance
RTG operates as an independent media institution with its own management structure. Senior leadership oversees day-to-day operations and editorial direction, with functional separation between management and editorial decision-making.
While the station engages with county institutions as a public-interest broadcaster, it maintains operational autonomy in programming and newsroom management.
Funding and budget
RTG is supported through a combination of advertising revenue, partnerships, and content collaborations, supplemented by limited public support for public-interest programming.
The station manages its own operational budget and does not rely exclusively on government allocations for sustainability.
Editorial independence
RTG Digital maintains editorial independence and professional newsroom standards.
Editorial decisions are guided by journalistic ethics, public interest considerations, and community relevance rather than political affiliation.
Coverage reflects a range of voices and perspectives from across Garissa County and the wider region, with no formal or informal directives from political actors influencing news content.
