L’Action
L’Action is the official newspaper of Cameroon’s ruling party, the Rassemblement Démocratique du Peuple Camerounais (RDPC), also known as the Cameroon People’s Democratic Movement (CPDM). It is published by the Direction of Press Organs, Information and Propaganda (DOPIP) of the RDPC Central Committee. According to the Library of Congress records, L’Action is published in Yaoundé and began publication in the 1990s, initially as a weekly publication. The Library of Congress notes some publishing irregularities, including periods when only one issue was published between July 1998 and January 1999. As the official party newspaper, L’Action serves as a vehicle for promoting RDPC/CPDM policies and activities, covering political developments, party meetings, and government initiatives from the ruling party’s perspective.
