For this purpose, he was invested by his political party, Saturday 22 August 2020. “Je vous investis ce 22 August as RHDP candidate in the presidential election of 31 octobre 2020”, said Henriette Diabaté, first vice-president of the ruling party, in front of tens of thousands of supporters gathered at the Houphouët-Boigny stadium, reports France 24.
“Nous allons gagner”, a rassuré à sa prise de parole le président Ouattara tout en promettant “un coup KO” avec une victoire dès le premier tour comme en 2015. He insisted, according to the same source on its economic report, claiming to have changed the face of towns and villages in Côte-d'Ivoire.
