"AFRICAN POLITICS": "Dealing with a dictator in the "Ivory Coast" (Last Part)

Par IVOIREBUSINESS - "Dealing with a dictator in the "Ivory Coast" (Last Part).

We would like to make everything absolute clear, because the issue of the next ivorian presidential elections in October 2015, points out the political smooth strategy of head of state "ALLASSANE OUATTA", to pave the way for eventual fake elections ,grounded in irregularities: His eager will to control the national ivorian commission of the presidential elections remains clearly the first trumpet indeed! But we would to seize this great opportunity to raise the conscious of the national and international community's high ,about what might happen later on! Knowing that history
might repeat itself, as far as fake presidential elections are concerned in the wole Africa. Let's take the conspicuous examples of
"Kenya" and "Liberia"!

-(Reminder of te facts):
The political history of "Liberia" gives us some insightful informations about that crucial reality of fake elections's drawbacks:
In (1980), a sergent called "Samuel Kanyon Doe" took over at the age of 27 years, through a bloody coup in the process
of a so called redemption for the indegenous liberians under the domination of the American Liberians, over more than one century!
Their motto at that time was: "it is our time now and "Samuel Doe" was compared to an earlier saviour and redeemer...
Five years later in (1985), "Samuel Doe 's military regime corruption was an embarrassment to their main ally(USA) !
As a result, the "Reagan "administration at that period pressures "Doe" to return "Liberia" to civil rule, when organizing clean democratic elections ! Down the line, "Doe" was forced to play the democratic game indeed against his will...
In (1985), defintely, he organized fake presidential elections and declared himsef the winner: That was the roots of a political frustration for those who brought him to power in (1980)!Among them was the captain "Kiwonkpa", a Guiwo(Yacouba) from "Nimba" conte.
One month later, in (1985) captain "Thomas Kiwonkpa" who was among the seventeen soldiers who brought Samuel Doe to power entered MonRovia from America, with the backing of some soldiers from SIERRA LEONE, to overthrow "Doe", through a peaceful coup without any bloodshed! Within Six hours, he took the national radio and TV station and liberians thought at that time, "Doe" had been overthrown!
But miraculously, armed forces loyal to "Doe" had retaliated and killled the dissident captain "Kiwonkpa", found mutilated!
Definitely, it was the remote reasons of war In "Liberia", when a skirmish started close to the border of the "Ivory Coast",
through the ivorian town of "DANANE", in (December 1989)!
Down the line, what happened to "Liberia" at that particular time, can happen to the "Ivory Coast", because the credibility of the
future ivorian presidential elections are at stake in October 2015!
The duty of the press to some extent, is to prevent a nation from being involved in another turmoil, before it's too late...(Our warning indeed)!
