Tensions high as Ivory Coast president seeks third term

Opponents say Ivory Coast incumbent president Alassane Ouattara's (C) bid for a third term is illegal.

Ivory Coast votes in a tense election on Saturday after an opposition boycott and clashes over President Alassane Ouattara's contested attempt to secure a third term.

At least 30 people have been killed in pre-election violence, evoking memories of a 2010-2011 crisis that turned Abidjan into a battleground and left 3,000 dead.
