According to a report
monitored on the Hausa service of the Voice of America, the Islamist sect, Boko
Haram has established an FM radio station.
Boko Haram Residents in Tolkomari,
which is in the far northern part of Cameroon, have confirmed receiving
broadcast messages from the sect via the radio station on 96.8 frequency
modulation. The Voice of America report said the station broadcast mainly
propaganda materials to counter media reports of victories by troops from
Nigeria, Chad, Cameroon and Niger Republic against the Boko Haram militants.
The report said the Cameroonian government is worried by the new development
and has commenced investigations towards locating the radio station, which is
said to be on the Nigeria-Cameroon border.
