Unité CI is an Ivorian digital news organization published by Unité Communication Internationale (UI) SARL. Operating under the tagline “Un journal qui rassemble,” the outlet covers national politics, the economy, society, culture, sport and international affairs for a general audience. Its newsroom publishes breaking updates, editorials and interviews, and maintains an Enquêtes section for deeper reporting. Regular field dispatches from regions such as Bounkani and Cavally reflect a focus on election coverage and public policy debates outside Abidjan. Unité CI is part of a small network of titles managed by the same parent company, which includes uniteci.com, mondeagricole.ci and universmedia.net. This structure allows the brand to combine general‑interest reporting with sector coverage and distribute stories across web and social channels, including Facebook, X, YouTube and Instagram. Editorial leadership is headed by Director General and Publisher Nando Dapa Kobenan Paul Arnaud, with Delphine Bongro serving as editor‑in‑chief. The organization is also connected to Ivory Coast’s online press community through its leadership: Nando Dapa serves as president of the Union des patrons de la presse en ligne de Ivory Coast (UPLCI), which in July 2025 presented a charter committing member outlets to contribute to peaceful elections. In short, Unité CI presents itself as a locally rooted, digital‑first newsroom with a strong emphasis on political reporting and regular on‑the‑ground coverage from the country’s interior.
