"This is the year of my year! ". This chorus of a famous song that’s on every lips these recent years in Côte d'Ivoire was taken in chorus this Saturday, May 2nd, 2015, in the at the Prefecture of Agboville, by the population of that department. And this for good reason: ahead of the state visit in the Agnéby-Tiassa, on the forthcoming May 4th, the First Lady, Mrs. Dominique Ouattara has offered large donations of various kind valued at 250 million CFA francs to the populations of that department.

FAFCI: 150 million CFA francs for the women
