Ouattara vows peaceful fight as Ivory Coast court bars run
Ivory Coast opposition leader Alassane Ouattara pledged to continue a peaceful struggle for democracy after a Supreme Court ruling barred him from challenging junta leader Gen. Robert Guei in the Oct. 22 presidential election. The court questioned his mother’s nationality and noted Ouattara had used Burkina Faso nationality, a claim he denies while urging calm amid fears of unrest.
