PRESIDENT OUATTARA IS INCOMPETENT


ABIDJAN ( IVORYCOAST ): In a few weeks, President Alassane Ouattara will officially blow its second birthday as the President of Ivory Coast. Fraudulently elected in November 2010, it was finally in April 11, 2011 that he was able to take full possession of state power after a bloody standoff with President Laurent Gbagbo who also claimed victory after the constitutional counsel proclaimed him as the winner. Since then nearly two years, Alassane Ouattara is in command of the country, but some social commitments and promises he made during the presidential campaign are slow to materialize. As far as the employment and the  fight against poverty are concerned, Ouattara regime gives the feeling of back-pedaling. In any case,   as time passes, and as we approach the next presidential election, the future, rather than provide answers to the concerns of people of IvoryCoast, mired in poverty, is outrageously obscure. Not really sure of anything, but based on the numerous complaints and other complaints that are heard everywhere now, we can say today that the majority of the Ivorian population is won by a sense of disappointment or disillusionment witnessing the difficulties experienced by the regime to alter the curve of the poverty in this country. In other words, people feel that Allassane Ouattara, who the international community had placed an almost blind trust, is not as competent as he proclaims. Ouattara is facing the music between the slogans of the presidential campaign and the reality of being a leader. In two years of power, Ouattara's inner circle can be compared to scorpions in a desert because of their corruption and the lack of impunity. All this adds to the disenchantment that began to rise for some time between the President and the people of IvoryCoast. A population whose shoulders are struggling to bear increasingly, the burden of unemployment, cost of living and especially the growing poverty. The recent increase in the price of fuel, gas, electricity ... without any accompanying measure and the total absence of reform of the labor market, are understanding, alas, signs that the end of the tunnel is imperceptible. Busy as he is, without doubt to please the international community rather than look more closely, to degrading living conditions of its citizens.
