Sports journalist Eyong Macdella has been crowned Best Sports Content Creator at the 2026 Cameroon Association of Sports Journalists (AJSC) Awards, a fitting recognition of her growing influence in Cameroon’s sports media landscape.
Macdella, who works for My Media Prime and kick442.com, has earned widespread acclaim through her engaging digital content and comprehensive coverage of football, particularly on her popular Facebook page.
Her career has seen her report from some of Africa’s biggest football tournaments, including the 2021 Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon and the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations in Morocco, where she provided fans with match reports, exclusive interviews, behind-the-scenes content, and regular updates throughout the competitions.
Away from international tournaments, Macdella has remained committed to promoting local football. She has consistently covered the Guinness Super League, shining a spotlight on women’s football in Cameroon, while also reporting extensively on the MTN Elite One and Elite Two championships.
Her dedication to telling the stories of athletes and competitions at both the domestic and continental levels has helped her build a loyal audience across social media and established her as one of Cameroon’s leading digital sports journalists.
The AJSC Award recognizes her consistency, professionalism, and passion for sports storytelling, highlighting the increasing importance of digital content creation in modern sports journalism.
For Macdella, the honour is another milestone in a career dedicated to amplifying Cameroonian and African football while inspiring the next generation of sports journalists.
