Africa Radio gets a frequency in Abidjan

AFRICA RADIO is a new African radio project, which aims to offer a unique cultural program and cover in the coming years the main cities of French-speaking African countries.

Supported by the fund I&P Afrique Entrepreneurs since 2016, the project relies on the experience of Africa N°1, a pan-African radio created in 1981 reaching about 980 000 listeners, mostly from the African diaspora.

People in Abidjan will be able to listen to Africa Radio's program by the end of 2018 on the 91.1 MHz frequency.

"This is a major step for our radio," declared Dominique Guihot, "and a mark of recognition for the work done by the Africa No.1 Paris since 1981. This new frequency illustrates our ambition to become in the coming years a continental media in francophone Sub-Saharan Africa. That is why we decided to set up our headquarters in Abidjan and create within two years a pool of pan-African journalists. "
