Episode Description
English translation: The news could deal a blow to the FPI, the Ivorian Popular Front; a party which is struggling has regained its unity since the transfer of its President, Laurent Gbagbo, to the International Criminal Court. The announcement of the official divorce petition from his wife Simone, introduced by ex-President Laurent Gbagbo, will not be without effect on the FPI, the political party of which they are both co-founders. While many people think of a Mandela-style scenario, in reference to the South African President who divorced his wife Winnie to better revive himself in politics and exercise executive power during a term, others are convinced that this is a bad step and a very bad political scheme deployed by Laurent Gbagbo. In Abidjan, the debates on the impact of this divorce petition on the cohesion of the FPI are going well.
