The fourth edition of SUMMIT Magazine hit the stands over the weekend with an even improved quality and shift of gender focus. The glossy silhouette magazine that won the award of the best magazine in Cameroon recently, broke away from focus on men to "A Woman on the Go", Dr. Joyce Ashuntantang.
It explores the world of a woman who has taken Anglophone Literature to University classrooms in the United States; who is an actress, screenwriter, journalist, movie maker and university professor.
Besides Dr Ashuntantang, the magazine took interest in the lives of young celebrities, balancing the gender between CRTV's "Charge d'Etudes Assistant" for Special Coverage at the National Assembly, Esther Kima, and Yaounde I University's Theatre Arts Lion King, Donatus Fai Tangem.
It also intruded into the worlds of Alain Blaise Batongue, Publisher of the Cameroon French Daily tabloid, Mutations, and Jean Paul Yana, Commercial Specialist at the US Embassy in Yaounde.
Our local markets, which it describes as foodstuff supermarkets, were not left out in the edition. Its focus was on the Muea Market in Buea, Southwest Province; and the Widikum Market, Northwest Province, where it highlights "Palm Oil, as "The Red Gold Of The Widikum Market".
SUMMIT Magazine also took interest in the home coming for Cameroon Gorillas as well as the seizure by Cameroon Wildlife authorities of some 1000 parrots destined for illegal exports.
Beyond the national frontiers, SUMMIT celebrated Miss Africa USA 2008, where Nigerian beauty queen, Miss Nigeri Mfonobon Essiet grabbed the crown.
The Media Excellence Awards, the Festi Bikutsi 2007 and the Miss Africa USA 2008 added colour and beauty to this new edition.Readers have been promised an exclusive treat of Chinua Achebe's interview, which is part of golden jubilee celebrations of Things Fall Apart and the life of the father of African Literature.

SUMMIT Magazine that placed itself at the summit just after three editions, came out this time with unbelievable quality. Many, who have savoured the latest issue, have described it is an un-put-downable.
