This shows the complicity of the French. I transited through Abidjan Airport in 2005 and I was shocked to see French soldiers were the ones guarding the facility. Not a single Ivorian in sight - while Ghanians were customs officials. The French are too obsessed with the extractive economy and keeping their puppets in power to even bother with a modicum of service. My heart bleeds out to these guys - it could easily turn out as massive ethnic cleansing yet Cote d'Ivore is the economic engine of that region. If they go that way, it will have a knock over effect on all the economies that use CFA. On another note - the Ivorians have a very tasty snail sauce and very inspiring music. Lets remember them in our prayers.

Are the puppets aware of a dude by the name Ocampo?

Remember who/ what? the snail/music or the ivorians?

@simonkabz, Ocampo has no power except the power you give him. Kenya has given him too much power. Has he visited UG, Congo and Sudan where he has already prosecuted people successfully?
--NO!

Looks like the ivorian problem will be hard to sort with its complementary religous divide mix. maybe a coalition straightaway and ban the two/three bigs from the next election. By the way it seems very hard for an almost 50/50 religious divide to work. Iam thinking of nigeria. Cant tell religious% in others like senegal, niger, gambia. but i would think they have a good mix of christians. but maybe religious not the real problem in Ivory??
