CÔTE D’IVOIRE DECODED 23-29 January 2026
On 23 January 2026, President Alassane Ouattara unveiled a government that looked almost identical to the one before it. Twenty-nine of the 34 ministers retained their posts. But one striking innovation stood out: a new Vice Prime Minister position. The president appointed his younger brother, Téné Birahima Ouattara (TBO), to it.
CÔTE D’IVOIRE DECODED 15-22 January 2026
For two weeks, Côte d’Ivoire waited. The government resigned on 7 January. Speculation swirled. Names circulated in the press—some familiar, some historic. Would President Alassane Ouattara finally elevate a woman to lead the cabinet? Would younger reformists break through? On 21 January, the answer came: none of the above.
CÔTE D’IVOIRE DECODED 8-14 January 2026
Fallout from Côte d’Ivoire’s December elections is growing. The Constitutional Council annulled the results in two districts. Opposition groups are filing fraud complaints. A procedural dispute has frozen the National Assembly inauguration. A Malian lawmaker is on trial for calling President Alassane Ouattara a “destabilizer.”
