Ubudlelwano obuseduze ne-France selokhu yathola inkululeko ngo-1960, ukuthuthukiswa kokukhiqizwa kwe-cocoa okuthunyelwa kwamanye amazwe, kanye nokutshalwa kwezimali kwamanye amazwe kwenza i-Côte d'Ivoire ibe ngenye yezindawo ezichuma kakhulu emazweni ashisayo ase-Afrika, kodwa ayizange iyivikele ezinxushunxushwini zezombusazwe.
NgoZibandlela ka-1999, ukuketula umbuso kwamasosha - okwakungokokuqala ngqa emlandweni we-Côte d'Ivoire - kwaketula uhulumeni. Umholi weJunta, uRobert Guei, waqola ngokusobala ukhetho olwalubanjwe ngasekupheleni kuka-1999 futhi wazimemezela ukuthi nguye owinile. Umbhikisho odumile wamphoqa ukuthi ashiye eceleni futhi walethela umgijimi uLaurent Gbagbo enkululekweni. Abavukeli base-Ivory Coast kanye namalungu ezempi ayengahloniphi baqala umzamo wokuketula umbuso owabhuntsha ngoSepthemba 2002. Amasosha amavukelambuso athatha ingxenye esenyakatho yezwe, kwathi ngoJanuwari 2003 anikezwa izikhundla zobungqongqoshe kuhulumeni wobumbano ngaphansi kweLinas-Marcoussis Peace Accord. UMongameli uGbagbo kanye namasosha avukela umbuso baphinde baqala kabusha ukusebenzisa isivumelwano sokuthula ngoDisemba 2003 ngemuva kokushuba kwezinyanga ezintathu, kodwa izindaba ezasusa impi yombango, njengokubuyiswa komhlaba kanye nezizathu zokuba yisakhamuzi, azizange zixazululwe.
Ukhetho lwagcina lubanjwe ngo-2010 lapho ukhetho lokuqala lubanjwe ngokuthula, futhi lwanconywa kakhulu njengolukhululekile nolungenzeleli. U-Laurent Gbagbo, njengomongameli, waqhudelana nowayenguNdunankulu u-Alassane Ouattara. Ngomhla zi-2 kuZibandlela wezi-2010, iKhomishana yoKhetho yamemezela ukuthi u-Ouattara uzuze ukhetho ngesilinganiso sama-54% kuya ku-46%. Iningi labohulumeni bomhlaba bayaseseka leso simemezelo, kodwa uMkhandlu Womthethosisekelo ohambisana noGbagbo wasichitha wabe esememezela ukuthi imingcele yezwe isivaliwe.
Ukhetho lukamongameli lwaholela enkingeni yase-Ivorian yango-2010-2011 kanye naseMpini Yombango Yesibili Yase-Ivorian. Ngemuva kwezinyanga zezingxoxo ezingaphumeleli kanye nodlame oluqhubekayo, le nkinga ingene esigabeni esibucayi njengoba amasosha ka-Ouattara ethatha izintambo zokulawula ingxenye enkulu yezwe.
Ngo-Ephreli 2011, amasosha asekela i-Ouattara ayesengene e-Abidjan futhi ukulwa kwasemgwaqweni phakathi kwezinhlangothi zombili kwaholela ekuthunjweni kukaGbagbo futhi isimo manje sesizinzile. Kodwa-ke, ohulumeni abaningi basaluleka izakhamuzi zabo ngokumelene nokuvakashela e-Côte d'Ivoire nakuba izinkulungwane ezimbalwa zamasosha okuthula e-UN namakhulu amaningana amasosha aseFrance esekhona e-Cote d'Ivoire ukusekela inqubo yenguquko.
Ukuhamba phakathi kwamadolobha e-Côte d'Ivoire kuvamise ukuba ntofontofo kunokuvakasha emazweni angomakhelwane ase-Afrika. Imigwaqo ivamise ukuba sesimweni esihle futhi isevisi yamabhasi ingeyesimanjemanje. Uhlangothi olungezansi yizindawo zokuhlola zamasosha ezivame kakhulu ezengeza amahora ohambo. Nakuba izitobhi ziwuhlupho, amasosha ase-Ivoire ajwayele ukuba ngochwepheshe futhi awahluphi abahambi basentshonalanga abangewona ama-French. Ngokwesibonelo, amasosha aseGhana maningi amathuba okuthi afune isifumbathiso kunase-Côte d'Ivoire. Ohulumeni abaningi basentshonalanga batusa ukuthi izakhamuzi zabo zihlukane neCôte d'Ivoire. Lokhu kufanele kuthathwe ngokungathi sína ikakhulukazi ngabantu abahamba ngamaphasipoti aseFrance. Isimo sengqondo sesosha lase-Ivoire ngawe sizoshintsha ngokushesha lapho uchaza ukuthi awusona isiFulentshi.
I-UTB - I-Union de Transports de Bouake inikeza amabhasi avamile ezindaweni eziningi ezithakazelisayo. Iziteshi zabo zamabhasi zaziwa kabanzi emadolobheni futhi zingamakhompiyutha avaliwe ngakho ukuhamba akuyona inkinga.
Ukuhamba e-Abidjan kungcono kakhulu uma unemoto yakho ongayihamba. Imigwaqo ilungele isifunda, kodwa imithetho yomgwaqo yephulwa njalo, ikakhulukazi amatekisi. Akukho ukuziphatha komzila futhi amarobhothi ayiziphakamiso nje. Ukuminyana kwethrafikhi kuba kubi ngesikhathi sokugijima kanti abanye abashayeli abanobugovu benza izinto zibe zimbi kakhulu ngokulawula okungekho emthethweni nokuvame ubudedengu. Ukusabela kwamaphoyisa kulokhu kuyahlekisa, njengoba engakwazi ukujaha/ukujezisa izephula-mthetho ezimbi kakhulu futhi anyakazise abantu abangenzi lutho olungalungile.
Amatekisi ayindlela enhle nelula yokuhambahamba e-Abidjan. Vele ubheke imoto enombala osawolintshi bese uyimaka phansi. Imali yokugibela ithengeka kakhulu: US $2-4 kuye ngobude bohambo. Hlala uxoxisana ngaphambi kokuthi ungene etekisini — ungasebenzisi imitha njengoba cishe uzokhokha kakhulu njalo.
