Responsibilty in the Ivory Coast

This article talks about how Paul Yao N’dre first ignited controversy within the Ivory Coast when he falsely announced that Laurent Gbagbo had won elections when in fact Alassane Ouattarra had won. However, N’dre has decided to point the finger at everybody else by saying that all people of the Ivory Coast are to blame for the violent chaos that has taken place. It seems like he is attempting to avoid any form of personal responsibility through by any means possible. I think he should at least admit responsibility for his role in the country’s violent unrest despite other’s role in the choas. What do you think, should N’dre be held accountable for his actions?

  1. I think Paul Yao N’dre is completely to blame and needs to take responsibility.

  2. I agree with David. Paul Yao N'dre is to blame. He doesn't take the proper precautions when issues need to be addressed. He's just not a good leader in general.

  4. N'dre is definitely trying to deflect any personal responsibility for the bloodshed he indirectly caused during Ivory Coast's elections. Still however he is right to say that it is everyone fault, although he should admit to his own fault. But it is also time to rebuild the city as he also mentions in his address.
