Africanewsquick is an Abidjan-based digital news organization that reports primarily on Ivory Coast’s political life and public affairs for a French‑speaking audience. Its newsroom publishes daily campaign coverage, statements from parties and officials, and analysis of policy debates, with frequent reporting from Yopougon, Cocody and other districts of Abidjan. The outlet states an editorial mission to deliver true, fair and verified political information, and it complements that core brief with society, economy, culture, sports and international news sections. Beyond text articles, Africanewsquick runs ANQ TV, a video strand featuring speeches, press briefings and on‑the‑ground clips from political events. The site also hosts an AMA section carrying Africa‑focused press releases, and a Petites Annonces classifieds area that connects readers with local opportunities. Archives on the platform date back to 2018, reflecting a consistent publishing cadence through national election cycles and major civic moments. Africanewsquick is published by Chieffia Communication and is led by Director of Publication and General Manager Guy Tressia, with Gilles Richard Omael serving as Editor‑in‑Chief. The organization operates from Abidjan and provides public contact details for editorial and technical inquiries. Its audience includes politically engaged readers in Ivory Coast and the Ivorian diaspora seeking up‑to‑the‑minute coverage of parties such as the RHDP and PDCI‑RDA, municipal affairs, and policy issues. By blending original reporting, video and curated announcements, Africanewsquick positions itself as a local political news source with an accessible, election‑season focus.
