I don't know, if the programme is still being aired, but two or three
years ago there was a programme named "Radio Afrique International" in
French on 11690 kHz via the Jülich site around this time. Be careful
not to mix this with Okapi!

Alas, I don't have the current sked of Jülich at hand, but suggest, to
check this first, to rule out, that it was the not so exotic Jülich
site!
