The government of Ivory Coast, Laurent Gbagbo appointed and not recognized internationally, rejects it considers "forced resignation" of the governor of Central Bank of West African States (BCEAO), Ivorian Philippe Henry Dacoury Tabley and one of its allies . The cabinet spokesman Gbagbo, Ahoua Don Mello said in a statement read on Ivorian Radio and Television, described as "hasty and inadequate," the decision taken yesterday in Mali at a meeting of the BCEAO, Central Bank of the countries of the Economic and Monetary Union West Africa.
Mello recalled that Gbagbo had previously rejected the decision of the Ministers of Finance of the UEMOA, adopted on 23 December in Bissau, to recognize firms as representatives of Ivory Coast to the accounts in the BCEAO to those covered by Alassane Ouattara. Mello also said that the government of Gbagbo had lodged an appeal with the Court challenging the UEMOA recognition of Ouattara.
Dacoury Tabley is alleged to have facilitated the transfer of funds from the BCEAO worth 80 billion CFA francs (120 million euros) the government of Gbagbo, although not recognized by the body. Ouattara is recognized as the elected president of Ivory Coast in the elections on Nov. 28 by the international community, after the Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) gave a victory that was certified by the United Nations.
However, Gbagbo refused to concede defeat and the Constitutional Council.
