Nalova Akua is an award-winning journalist based in Yaoundé, Cameroon. His work focuses on producing character-driven stories about climate change/environment, politics/conflicts, health and science in his home country and Africa. Akua is a cross-platform journalist who loves breaking news and what’s next, and who is at home on social platforms new and old. He's a fast and accurate reporter and writer, as confident turning around a short text piece in a few hours as writing newsletter entries or pulling together a smart Twitter thread or Insta story from an in-depth news feature. Akua is skilled at creating social content and has a knack for finding the nugget in a 2,000-word feature that will stop followers mid-scroll. He's an information junkie who lives on news sources from around the world – and who understands the pros and cons of each. Nalova is 2022 winner of the Michael Elliott Award for Excellence in African storytelling. He has also been shortlisted for numerous global awards
