This commercial radio station was a collaborative initiative involving the French and Gabonese governments, alongside private European media entities. Africa No. 1 aimed to provide a diverse platform for broadcasting, focusing on a wide range of content that catered to the interests of the African audience. The station's establishment was significant as it introduced a new era of media freedom and information dissemination in Gabon, allowing for a broader exchange of ideas and cultural expression. Broadcasting in both French and indigenous languages, Africa No. 1 played a crucial role in promoting local culture while also connecting Gabon to the wider African and global community.
