In Côte d’Ivoire, the final electoral list released by the IEC excludes major opposition candidates, including the PDCI’s presidential hopeful.
The Democratic Party of Côte d’Ivoire (PDCI) condemned the exclusion through Chief Executive Secretary Dr. Sylvestre Emmou.
In response, the PDCI announced plans for a nationwide democratic march to protest the IEC’s decision.
The move signals rising political tensions ahead of the October presidential election.
