New IEC chief for Côte d'Ivoire

afrol News, 26 February - The former interior minister and candidate from the Democratic Party of Côte d'Ivoire, Issouf Bakayoko, has been elected to head the country’s Independent Electoral Commission.

Mr Bakayoko’s appointment, follows the dissolution of the former electoral body, that has almost cost the long awaited Ivorian polls. He is from one of the two main opposition parties.

The country which was divided into two before the peace deal, had been without a government or electoral body since President Laurent Gbagbo dissolved them earlier this month.

Mr Gbagbo accused the electoral body head of manipulating the electoral lists in favour of the opposition.

Since then, a unity government has been formed with the parties yet to agree on some of the ministerial posts.

Côte d'Ivoire’s elections have been repeatedly postponed since 2005.
