Cameroon flag attribution: NCC demands apology from TV5
The National Communication Council has demanded an immediate explanation from French media outlet “TV5 Monde” for attributing a “strange flag” to Cameroon.
In a TV program on Tuesday January 23, 2024 which focused on the ongoing AFCON in Ivory Coast, Cameroon was presented on screen and attributed a flag visibly the white- blue stripped flag belonging to the Ambazonian separatist group. This situation made rounds on social media and immediately drew the attention of authorities.
In a release from the Council’s president this Wednesday January 24, Joseph Chebongkeng Kalabubsu, said the Channel’s authorities should immediately explain why they attributed a different flag to Cameroon.
Since 2016, Separatists have been fighting to create a state theh called Ambazonia ( North West and South West regions) Their flag is blue and white with a dove, same as the flag used on the fixtures used by TV5 Monde.
