What is the oldest written source in this country that mentions this right?

Cameroon

Section 16 of the 1972 Cameroonian Constitution’s Preamble protects press freedom, citing the United Nations’ Universal Declaration of Human Rights: “the freedom of communication, of expression, of the press, of assembly, of association, and of trade unionism, as well as the right to strike shall be guaranteed under the conditions fixed by law” (Constitute Project, “Cameroon's Constitution of 1972 with Amendments through 2008” ).
