Frustrations caused by the inability to view/consume Cameroonian TV shows produced in the diaspora, for lack of access to the Internet in some parts of the country will soon be a thing of the past. One of such shows is now being beamed into Cameroonian homes, especially in Fako Division, South West region, from Chillen Music Television, CMTV. CMTV is a Buea-based young TV station, specialized in music and other forms of entertainment.
