Guinea Bissau Radio Stations

Guinea-Bissau's national radio broadcasts in Portuguese and Kriol, the Creole lingua franca that truly unites the country's many ethnic communities. Community radio stations — among the earliest in Lusophone Africa — serve regions from Gabú to the Bijagós islands, sustaining public information through chronic political instability. Gumbe, the syncretic national genre, defines the musical identity on air, alongside kora traditions from the east and zouk shared with the Cape Verdean diaspora.
