According to the results of the 2019 AFRICASCOPE study, the Top 5 Radio stations show significant changes compared to the previous year.

The Muslim religious station AL BAYANE, in first place, dominates the Ivorian landscape and has made significant progress compared to last year (+3.5 points in audience share).

RFI, in second place, has also made progress (+0.6 points in audience share) compared to last year, as has Radio ESPOIR, the Christian religious radio station, which has moved up two places to take its place on the podium.

NOSTALGIE, the only commercial station in the TOP 5, regains its leadership in fourth place, which was briefly challenged by TRACE RADIO, which lost nearly half of its audience and disappeared from the TOP 5.
