In December, alumnus Chernoh Bah (2023), founding editor of the Africanist Press, launched a new Voice from Exile podcast focusing on African issues. This podcast forms part of the commemoration of the 21st anniversary of the Africanist Press, marking a significant milestone in the press organization’s ongoing effort to build an independent media agency dedicated to the promotion of democracy, accountability, and good governance across Africa. Bah has an active following among West Africa’s youth population and is a critical voice among the emergent leadership generation in the region. The Africanist Press is a nonprofit organization of investigative journalists and academics established in December 2002 to report on corruption, human rights, and democratic governance in Africa. Africanist Press journalists and researchers have documented and reported on corruption, graft, and human rights issues across many African countries, including in Cameroon, Kenya, Guinea, Sierra Leone, and Nigeria. Its recent work includes a multiyear investigation that produced more than 70 reports documenting large-scale financial crimes and corruption in Sierra Leone. The Sierra Leone investigation has had far-reaching consequences and attracted international attention to the issues of democratic governance and financial corruption in that West African country. The Africanist Press podcast can be heard on Amazon, Apple, Castbox, iHeart Radio, Pocket Cast, Radio Public, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. Spotify accounts for about 55% of the followers in 75 countries, most of whom live in Sierra Leone, the US, and the UK. The WhatsApp platform accounts for a weekly distribution totaling 1.5 million people, including audiences in Sierra Leone, Guinea, The Gambia, Liberia, and Nigeria.
