About Julius Wamey

Julius M. Wamey is a Cameroon-born American writer and journalist living in Virginia, in the United States. Before migrating to the USA in the mid-1990s, he served as a reporter and news anchor for the government-owned Cameroon Radio and Television Corporation (CRTV), where he earned a reputation as a hard-hitting critic of government abuses of human rights, mismanagement, and official corruption, for which he was arrested and interrogated several times. He was eventually fired and escaped the country, on the advice of friends in the American embassy, just before he could be arrested and charged with subversion. In the United States, Julius obtained a master’s degree in international journalism from American University and joined the World Bank, where he would go on to work for 16 years as a writer and editor. His bio page on the World Bank’s website describes him as the editor of the Bank’s Intranet homepage and the pioneer editor of key internal communications initiatives. He edited the World Bank Weekly Update, an external Bank newsletter with more than 60,000 subscribers worldwide. Prior to joining the Bank, Julius was a reporter/writer for various publications and news organizations, including the Los Angeles Times Washington Bureau, CNN International, and the BBC. Julius also recently worked as a communications consultant at the African Development Bank in Abidjan, Cote d’Ivoire.
