Africanews Launches Vision of Unbiased Information, Embracing Diversity


From the Republic of the Congo, rolling multi-platform news channel Africanews sets out to serve the continent’s more than 50 countries in English and French, later adding more languages. The African and global news and business stories are told from an African perspective.

One of the French-speaking journalists, Nathalie Wakam, said: “Here in Pointe-Noire [the country’s second-largest city] we have been working hard for several months already. My colleagues and I this morning identified and made a running order of the subjects our Africanews site has produced online. With our sources and correspondents, we cover [all of] Africa. The goal is not to gather more information on western or central Africa because of any linguistic proximity; we also cover the Maghreb in the north, and Africa south of the equator. One of our strengths at Africanews is we have journalists from practically all over the continent, isn’t that right, Robert?”
