Gambia: NABJ Announces Pap Saine As 2019 Percy Qoboza Foreign Journalist of the Year

The National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) announced Pap Saine, co-publisher and managing editor of The Point newspaper in The Gambia, West Africa, as the recipient of the 2019 Percy Qoboza Foreign Journalist of the Year Award.

The annual award honors the groundbreaking and often dangerous work done by foreign journalists covering the African Diaspora. The award is named for the late Percy Peter Tshidiso Qoboza, editor of The World newspaper in Soweto, South Africa. Qoboza's powerful columns ranged from coverage of the 1976 Soweto riots to the tragic horror of apartheid and the white minority government's treatment of millions of black Africans.
