Dorothée Temou Eboa, former Cameroonian journalist, found deceased in Medina

The discovery has deeply affected the Cameroonian community in Dakar. Known as Dora Eboa, she was a prominent Cameroonian journalist, having worked at Balafon Radio and Spectrum Television STV, where she hosted shows like "7 Hebdo" and "Entretien avec…". In 2015, she became STV's Director of Information before leaving the channel.

Her career later led her to Dakar, where she joined BBC Afrique as a journalist-presenter. Her media presence gradually faded in Dakar, and contact with her relatives was lost. For nearly ten years, from 2015, her family had no news of her.

Her brother issued a missing person's notice in August 2021, and her mother renewed the appeal in November 2024. Dora Eboa was found safe in Dakar in March 2025, bringing relief to her family, though her mother's attempt to bring her back to Cameroon was unsuccessful. She had been living reclusively in an F3 apartment in Medina, rarely receiving visitors.

Her tragic end, under largely unexplained circumstances, marks the conclusion of the journey of a respected former voice of Cameroonian television who became isolated and forgotten during her silent exile.
