Electoral Reform: Draft on Parliament's Table, UN Reconnects with Gbagbo

In Ivory Coast, the second session of Parliament was officially opened by Patrick Achi, the President of the National Assembly, who outlined the session's priorities. The draft electoral reform is already before the deputies and will be discussed alongside reforms to the Penal Code. The cocoa sector crisis, including the set farm-gate price of 1,200 CFA francs, is also featured in Ivorian newspapers.
