Ouattara secures fourth term as Ivory Coast faces questions over democracy and direction
Manage episode 517797655 series 2342643
Bongani Bingwa speaks to Sakaria Kone, Ivory Coast’s Ambassador to South Africa, as President Alassane Ouattara secures a fourth term in office with nearly 90% of the vote. The result, announced in the early hours in Abidjan, has stirred both celebration and concern, supporters hail Ouattara as the architect of stability and economic progress, while critics question the fairness of an election marked by the exclusion of key rivals. As the nation basks in the glow of another Ouattara victory, many ask whether Ivory Coast is witnessing the consolidation of democracy or the quiet erosion of it and what this means for its future, its people, and its partners across Africa.
