The PPA-CI, the party of Laurent Gbagbo, denounced Tuesday, May 30, "irregularities and fraud" on the electoral list. The former Ivorian president is still removed, three months before the municipal and regional elections in Côte d'Ivoire.
The list was "riddled with irregularities and fraudulent elements," said Habiba Touré, president of "Safe", a body created to fight electoral fraud. The Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) did not wish to comment.
