President Ouattara is a fraud

Governance in IVORYCOAST suffers from dictation, military adventurism and tribal politics. Former president Laurent Gbagbo's resilience and determination to preserve IVORYCOAST and avert major conflict or worse, civil war , was tested by the deepening trend of the use of identity politics by Allassane Ouattara to promote tribal interests.
Events leading to the September 19, 2002 failed coup and transformed into a brutal rebellion show the length to which Ouattara and his allies were willing to go to whip up tribal sentiments for the purpose of gaining political advantage. First it was Mr. Allassane Ouattara’s “They don't want me to be a candidate because I'm from the north and I am a muslim” in his infamous all-die-be-die speech to the north of IVORYCOAST. Then in the later days of the same year, Allassane Ouattara caused a stir with another calamitous choice of words – claiming that the people of the Northern Regions are tired of being second fiddle to the presidency. Implicit in that is for Northerners to stand up for one of their kind. Very disgraceful indeed to hear such words come from someone who want to become leader of the whole of IVORYCOAST. 
Ouattara chose to tap into human’s natural fear about identity and belonging, by cleverly co-opting the ideas of tribal self-identity and superiority. In effect he employed survival tactics along tribal lines by sending signals to the northerners and muslims to take care of one’s own tribe first. The consequences of this is that Ouattara's crusade became less about policies, ideas, measures, programs or good governance, In any advanced society or democracy Ouattara would have never become head of state. However, in IVORYCOAST, Ouattara did not become president over his choice of words, but by how well he passed the tribal political calculus and the wrongful endorsement of the international community. Ouattara is not concerned about the consequences for national development.
The patronizing nature of IVORYCOAST’s politics coupled with the frustration of high unemployment among school graduates and low incomes for workers only create the climate for tribal orientation of politics in the country. Underpinning the need to have one’s own tribesman in the presidency is the overwhelming belief that Ouattara is corrupt and is in it for himself, his cronies and surrogates. President Ouattara has created a system in which you get around only if you know somebody who intends is connected to somebody in government. 

POVERTY IN IVORYCOAST

ABIDJAN ( IVORYCOAST ): During a ceremony held on December 21 at the building SCIAM Plateau, the results of the investigation on the living standards of households in IvoryCoast have been made public. And the least we can say is that two years after the regime change, the lives of Ivorians still do not know any improvement. Rather, it only gets worse day by day in a country where authorities talk of billions and emergence in a decade. Wonderful!



Thus, according to the Director General of the Institute, Ibrahim Ba, the investigation revealed "a worsening of urban poverty." Adama Toungara who is the mayor of Abobo over ten years went to illuminate the municipality in which people, oppressed by poverty are still dying from diseases that have disappeared from the planet earth.



This finding of worsening urban poverty is also evidence that the new Ivorian government, despite the rhetoric, has not yet succeeded in reversing the curve of the poverty in our country after two years of effective power. If the investigation revealed a worsening of urban poverty, one can easily imagine the situation in rural areas. In the areas of education and employment the investigation also noted some disturbing setbacks. Thus, "illiteracy and unemployment" exploded.



This gives a clear idea of ​​exploits by Kandia Camara at the Ministry of National Education. If she puts out the threat of closing schools for a year, it will undoubtedly improve the situation. As for unemployment, it already carries the promise of our president to create one million jobs by 2015. Given that unemployment has never been better in our country with Ouattara's "adjustment policy" which is a form of discrimination that allows only president Ouattara's close friends, family members, and his muslim northern tribesmen to be appointed to higher administration positions.



But as Hamed Bakayoko, the arrogant minister of interior said "2013 will be the year of Côte d'Ivoire", Ivorians can always dream!

IVORYCOAST: A WORSHIPPER OF BIN LADEN, NAMED BY PRESIDENT OUATTARA

In IvoryCoast,, where, after catching wrongly ex-president Laurent Gbagbo, the ICC would like to smuggle his wife, Simone. However, the Ivorian president, Alassane Ouattara, is balking. Why? Not because Simone - accused wrongly, like her husband, having ordered massacres - would be free from fault.
No, what bothers president Ouattara, is that after Simone, members of his camp may well be called to the bar. Starting with Guillaume Soro, former Prime Minister, and now head of the parliament , initiator of the failed coup of 2002, which killed 5,000 civilians, is accused of atrocities by a UN report. Since then, other reports (Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch) recalled the misdeeds of warlords close to the current president, Allassane Ouattara. As Ousmane Coulibaly says "Bin Laden", Cherif Ousmane, Losseni Konate, Fofie Kouakou and many more, which men have committed hundreds of executions in April and May 2011 in Abidjan. Warlords that president Ouattara has appointed governors of districts.

IVORYCOAST: OUATTARA'S BRUTAL REGIME DICTATORSHIP

Eighteen months after the end of a post-election conflict which caused over 3,000 deaths and was merely the epilogue of a decade-long political and military crisis, no one could have expected a complete return to normalcy. IvoryCoast has to cope with challenges commonly faced by post-war countries. The security apparatus is struggling to get back in order.
Over 18,000 traditional hunters deployed across the territory, the so-called Dozos, helped secure the country, thus playing a role for which they have neither legitimacy nor skills. This military and militia apparatus working for the government is not well accepted, especially by the opposition. Political turmoil is accompanied by a return of hateful and dangerous discourses relayed by a partisan press, loyal to president Ouattara governement. In this climate of polarisation, the government is making decisions that gradually move it away from its campaign promises of better governance and a break with the past. The judicial system remains biased: not a single FRCI ( Ouattara's forces ) member has been charged, either for crimes committed during the post-election crisis or for those committed since. Arbitrary arrests have been taking place in the opposition media and have been widely carried out by the powerful Direction de la surveillance du territoire (DST) and military police.
In the administration and public companies, some appointments were made on regional or political criteria, in the name of an “adjustment policy” – a form of reverse discrimination that allows only Ouattara's friends, family members, and his tribesmen to be appointed to higher administration positions– that contradicts promises of improving governance.

The political class does not seem to have learned all the lessons from the post-electoral crisis, and is repeating the very attitudes that have led the country to the brink. It is urgent for President Ouattara, the new government and the entire ruling political class to resist the temptation of abusing power, which has already cost many lives in Côte d’Ivoire. It is time for the African organisations and the international community to publicly and firmly denounce the current Ivorian regime’s dysfunctions.
