In solidarity, warm greetings to all members of the JCAC network!
I am Moustafa Ismail from Radio Basse in Maroua (Far North, Cameroon). Despite the insecurity caused by Boko Haram, the harsh drought, and the isolation of our region, I power on my small station every morning to give a voice to the voiceless.
Since 2017, we have been broadcasting humanitarian alerts, combating fake news in Fulfulde and Kanuri, and showcasing local initiatives such as climate-resilient farming and intercommunity dialogue. Through our program “Sôna Mbedi,” we even helped save three villages by broadcasting coded messages in collaboration with traditional leaders.
However, our resources remain limited: 70% of our programming relies on solar power, indirect censorship restricts our editorial freedom, and we lack proper training in crisis journalism.
To carry on this vital mission, we urgently need waterproof recorders, portable solar kits, training modules on safety and trauma, and a JCAC emergency fund to support community radios in high-risk zones. I invite donors to witness our challenges firsthand and support the creation of a mobile studio.
Because when a community radio goes silent, an entire region is left unheard.
