An opposition coalition party in Ivory Coast has rejected the prospect of a third term for President Alassane Ouattara.
The Together for Democracy and Sovereignty (EDS) group described such attempt as “un-constitutional, unacceptable and unattainable.”
The Ivorian leader had in a recent interview granted to Jeune Afrique said the new constitution permitted him to do two terms from 2020.
Ouattara came to power after a bloody five-month crisis in 2010-11.
