high school kids posing in their uniform.
Boys normally were Kaki pants and shirt. White shirt and black tie, with blue pants are for special occasion.
For girls, it was always a white top and a blue skirt. I love the special occasion days. We all looked like little CEOs... lol

People don't sleep in Abidjan. Every night is party night. You would not believe it. The new dance, couper/Decaler, has taken africa by storm.
And Drogba is the new cherif in town.

Hotel for Members of parlement in Yamoussokro. Completed in January 2006.
Under Construction, the new National Assembly, and Presidential palace. All politics is moving to Yamoussokro. Abidjan will remain the Commercial Capital.


Hotel President in Yamoussokro. So much open space

Abidjan needs to revamp quickly to regain its previous status. So far good show.

You may be surprised to learn that I know more about Abidjan and IvoryCoast better than you(Though not Ivorian) I do not understand why you are becoming so defensive yet you probably did not play any role in the few setbacks that befell this great country besides this being a photo gallery it is also an international public forum of developmental discussion. Enough of politics.

We've already closed 2 Ivory Coast threads because of people like you.
I've already sent 2 private messages to the site Admin to allert him about what you are starting again.

He Re-Created this thread and copied all the photos back, removing all the political trash.

So stop it now.
This is a 'pictures only' thread. Don't start the polical rants again.

If you want to talk Ivory politics, open a new thread, I will be more than glad to debate you there about Ivory coast and your Country.
Thank you.
