This is the best translator I have ever heard. The UN translators stumble and speak with long pauses.

The President Alassane Ouattara has given to Côte d'Ivoire its letters of nobility through good governance with the results of strong and sustainable economic growth,the construction of economic and social infrastructure, a reduction of poverty on the basis of shared prosperty in the climate of peace

[@tylancoleman5438]

He may have broken constitution, but he has consistent communication to the public. Check his facebook page he's always informing the public. Also this country experience some of the highest growth. I really really hope he sees the importance of working together in west Africa region like creating the common currency and having United politics and security.

[@tylancoleman2862]

[@tylancoleman2862]

Cfa franc is BAD because its not your own currency

[@nnomzok4149]

Occidental Africa 😆

[@nnomzok4149]

The translation is abominable. He doesn't know what he's saying. "Political economy" vs "economic policy".

[@madouafrica8127]

African government is the worse and this got 3 term he have to go

[@stainlesssmart139]

I never knew Mr.Ouattara speaks an eloquent English like this. But unfortunately he hates CIV, African Continent very sad of course bcs he was trained by the westerners to do so...

[@nnomzok4149]

He holds American degrees. He studied in the US.

[@KingSolomon88]

Why you said he hates CIV?Any prove? Do not judge a person from outside.

[@Drgguv]

@@KingSolomon88 because he continues to kills ivorian people, don't speak with people who lived inside there

[@KingSolomon88]

@@Drgguv Come on man! he proud peace and end the turmoil at least give him credit for that.

[@Drgguv]

@@KingSolomon88 yeah, but what peace:be a sellout of the French and dictator who kills his own people, I don't have him credit for that simply because he didn't bought peace:France did brought peace putting this dictator in power, have him the French not intervened this mess would happened or gbabo(who I am not his supporter) would bought real pace...

[@issasidou8161]

Don't trust him his a lie

[@PeterMugisha005]

Mo is also corrupt! The godfather!…

[@tylancoleman2862]

This guy may be a fraud if he lets 6 million french migrates in every year. I thought he meant 6 million other African migrates

[@antoniokambire2271]

There’s not 6 million French migrating in CIV a year lol. In what world would that even make sense? Where did you hear that?

[@bisib1789]

all this explication is for french government report this guy is a lie
