Ivorians voted in a presidential election on Saturday, with incumbent Alassane Ouattara, 83, claiming credit for nearly 15 years of economic growth and relative stability while strongly hinting it will be his final campaign.

The election in the worlds biggest cocoa producer pits Ouattara against two former government ministers as well as the ex-wife and former spokesperson for his predecessor, Laurent Gbagbo.

Ouattara is the only candidate with the backing of a strong political party, making him the clear favourite.
