MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN CAMEROON

Print media in this Central African nation is shaped by a dual linguistic heritage established over decades. The market is led by Cameroon Tribune, the state-owned daily published in both French and English since 1974. Privately owned French-language titles hold significant readership, notably Le Messager, founded in 1979 as a pioneering independent voice, and Mutations, recognized for in-depth reporting. The Post stands out as the primary English-language publication serving Anglophone readers from its headquarters in Buea. Most circulations reflect the geographic split between the Francophone majority and western Anglophone regions. Paperboy indexes 5 Cameroonian newspapers — browse the full directory below.
