Radio Al Bayane, a Muslim radio station with widespread coverage in Cote d’Ivoire, is U.S. Embassy Abidjan’s partner that broadcasts Hello, American, one of our popular radio shows. To reinforce this partnership, Post’s new Public Affairs Officer (PAO)  Mark Weinberg visited the radio station where he met with Imam Cisse Djiguiba, the director, and other staff members. “Al Bayane, is your radio!” Imam Djiguiba said.  The PAO reaffirmed Post’s engagement to continue collaboration with the radio station. The director also announced Al Bayane’s TV channel, the first Muslim television in the country, which they are planning to launch in the next several months.
