Côte d’Ivoire : deux hauts cadres du PDCI-RDA placés sous contrôle judiciaire

Georges-Philippe Ezaley, vice-president and special adviser to PDCI-RDA leader Tidjane Thiam, and party director general Roger M’Bia were placed under judicial supervision after being questioned on Monday, 19 October 2026. They were allowed to return home, and sources close to the party said they face 17 charges. The two are among six PDCI-RDA officials summoned over alleged acts linked to the October 2025 electoral crisis. The party’s chief executive secretary, Yapo Yapo Calice, denounced the proceedings as politically motivated and said they amounted to pressure on the opposition.
