Ivory Coast’s Ouattara Delays Decision on Fourth Term Bid
Ivory Coast President Alassane Ouattara surprised members of the ruling party by deferring a decision on whether he will seek a fourth term in October elections.
“Concerning my candidacy for the presidential election, I will give an answer in some few days after a thorough reflection,” Ouattara said at the end of a two-day party congress in Abidjan, the commercial hub, on Sunday.
