Hes been just a few incidents its clear of course whats important to him that this country moves on beyond this election and that the situation remains peaceful but 6 its anything but peaceful in a political way also its quite stable and volatile the opposition parties are seeing this was not an election and quote that the president president ouattara rob the constitution the pictures coming out of ivory coast certainly local law making you mention the opposition then why have the opposition boycotted these elections. They said that president ouattara didnt have the right to actually run for a 3rd term which has to do with the constitution that was amended in 2016 limiting president ial terms to 2 now president ouattara basically said he didnt have a choice but to run for a 3rd time because his elected or chosen successor has died this summer now different readings there if you asked opposition parties and if you ask the president one thing is that the situation remains volatile here in this country and everything thats unstable when it comes to election can trigger civil unrest not only here in ivory coast but also as we have seen play out in other parts of africa beating guinea just a couple of weeks ago or in mali in august so what is really a question of how the next hours the next days are going to play out as well as how the reactions are going to unfold as the official results of this election will be announced funny thanks very much for the update.
