This Sunday morning, on RFI, a report was devoted to the situation of Ivorian footballers in distress in Ethiopia. In the hope of finding football clubs, about twenty young people found themselves stuck in this country of the Horn of Africa living in particularly precarious conditions. Some of them want to return home as quickly as possible. They explained that the Ivorian embassy on the spot had ignored them. "False", replies the director general of Ivorians from outside. Konaté Issiaka explains that the Ivorian authorities are aware and are facing a case which, according to him, falls under the law on trafficking in human beings.

The embassy was approached and the embassy did its job.
