‘Iron Lady’ who was shot at the Ivory Coast Presidency

Simone GBAGBO, the first lady of Ivory Coast, announced that he will challenge for the president to avoid arrests from hiding in bunkers.

The age of 76, who was controversial in a special return, was surprisingly possible this week to challenge the October elections and help supporters “help to build a new country.”

For many years, GBAGBO worked side by side with his ex -husband Laurent and was considered the power of his throne.

Now, with the conviction of crime and her divorce, she is the central stage as her presidential candidate.

GBAGBO was a first lady of Ivory Coast from 2000 to 2011 and called “Iron Lady” due to its reputation.

Her supporters called her “Mahman” (French French), but GBAGBO was afraid of a party founded with her husband, the IVORIAN Popular Front (FPI).

She told her husband’s presidency in the French magazine L ‘Express: “All pastors respect me.

At the rally, GBAGBO often began a passionate and eloquent speech to support her husband by calling her evangelist Christian faith.

GBAGBO met Laurent in 1973 when he was a powerful person in the IVORY Coast’s labor union movement.

GBAGBO received history and linguistic degrees and was a key member of various educational unions as teachers.

The couple’s relationship was also based on the struggle with the president Félix HoupHouët-Boigny at the time.

GBAGBOS demanded multinational democracy in protesting the dictatorship of HOUPHOUT-BOIGNY, which lasted for 33 years.

As a result of their behavioralism, the pairs are trapped in jail many times.

GBAGBO recalled her L ‘Express interview.

“I spent six months in jail, beaten and sexually harassed, and left for death.

In 1982, the A -pair co -founded the FPI. In the same year, Lawrent fled to France due to the harassment of HoupHouët-Boigny’s security forces, and GBAGBO was left to raise the couple’s twin daughters alone.

Laurent returned every six years, the pair married at an intimate event, and less than 10 guests attended.

GBAGBOS soon had an additional cause of congratulations. In 1990, HoupHouët-Boigny finally entered the cave and allowed the first national election at the Ivory Coast 30 years ago after independence.

Laurent decided to take his wife to president in his campaign.

LE MONDE, a French newspaper, said, “Laurent has made a discourse that does not compromise.”

In a less flattering term, Ivorian opposition newspaper Le Patriote wrote: “Laurent gbagbo- vast, warm and malicious enemy … His wife Simone Ehivet-GBAGBO-Mystery, cold, secret.”

In an extensive election, Laurent lost its presidential competition with HoupHouët-Boigny by the landslide.

But he took a position in the National Assembly, five years later his wife got one.

GBAGBO once again campaigned for her husband when he ran for president in 2000. This time, all other opposition candidates were excluded by military leaders who dominated power.

But the new president, once a democratic champion, began to adopt Draco Nian Actions to prevent political opposition. His support for his concept, or the Senate was divided into two to bring weapons to the North soldiers in the north.

His wife thinks he had a great influence on the security forces used by the administration to silence the opposition’s voice.

In 2005, the presidential election was delayed six times, and Laurent agreed to them in 2010, but said he had to control the whole country before the election.

Surprisingly, he was presented to Alassane Oataa, the current president of Ivory Coast, but did not accept the results. This attempt triggered another destructive civil war with more than 3,000 people.

After voting, GBAGBO dubbed OUATTARA to “bandit leader” and violently defended her husband’s residence decision.

She told her supporters, “The debate over the election between GBAGBO and ‘Bandit Leader’ is over.”

“Our president firmly established power and he is working.”

Eventually, the French army, supported by the president of the president, took a refuge from the bunker. They were arrested there and transported to the hotel in Abidjan, the main city of Ivory Coast, effectively ending the five -month conflict.

Five years later, in the trial, GBAGBO explained the detention of the hotel.

“I arrived when my butt was exposed, and my exposure was exposed. I tried rape several times in a wide daylight under the existence of French soldiers in the filming,” she told the court.

GBAGBO was sentenced to 20 years as “attempt to undermine the security of the state,” and organized a gang that interfered with the public order during the inter -Korean war.

Just three years later, however, President Ouattara gave GBAGBO a pardon of what he said. That’s why she can stand in the election next month despite her conviction.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) pursued a separate allegations of GBAGBO in 2012 and was later withdrawn regarding the inter -Korean war.

ICC chased Laurent -they prosecuted him as a crime against mankind, and he detained seven years in the Hague.

The couple refused all charges against them, as they had been innocent for a long time and politically motivated them.

Laurent eventually became popular by ICC and returned to ivory Coast in 2021.

But there will be no reunion to shed tears with his wife. A few days after landing on the ivory in soil, the former president applied for a divorce and raised his relationship with the journalist Nady Bamba.

GBAGBO accused her of “Blatant” to Laurent through repeated -lawyers. And well -known adultery “and” giving up the marriage family “.

The former lady had rested in a quiet and systematic political foundation after taking a break at the FPI.

She founded a new party, a competent generation (MGC) left -wing movement (MGC) and promised the “modernized” and “prosperity” ivory coast in the next month’s campaign.

GBAGBO’s candidates are not only politically important in countries where women are underestimated in the national leadership, but also symbolically symbolic.

Only 30%of the members of the Ivoria National Assembly are women, and few have played a senior role in the government.

GBAGBO’s behavioralism and reputation for democracy have been contaminated, but she is still considered one of the most powerful challengers of OUATTARA in the next month’s poll.

She is a political veteran with a strong investigation, and she is expected to be supported by her husband’s supporters.

But in this election, the spotlight will appear firmly in the Simone Gbagbo. And if she beats the president, “Iron Lady” will make history the first female president of the Ivory Coast.
