Billon Concedes Election Defeat to Ouattara in Ivory Coast

In the Ivory Coast, a presidential election took place.

Jean-Louis Billon, who used to be in charge of commerce, admitted he lost.

The winner was Alassane Ouattara, who was already the president.

The election results showed that Ouattara had a significant lead in many areas.

Billon was one of the four people who were running against Ouattara in the election.

Ouattara, a former high-ranking official at the International Monetary Fund, was trying to get re-elected for the fourth time.
