Korhogo: After the violence, the population and national police smoke the peace pipe

On April 26, 2026, a meeting was held in Korhogo, initiated by Mayor Lassina Ouattara, to ease tensions following the violence on April 18 in the Haoussabougou neighborhood. Local authorities, national police, and community leaders gathered to restore trust between law enforcement and residents. The previous incidents, triggered by a traffic accident, led to clashes between youths and police, exacerbated by the use of tear gas by law enforcement.
