    Yamoussoukro, Ivory Coast – (African Boulevard News) – In a surprising turn of events, Ivory Coast President Alassane Ouattara will not be attending the coronation of the UK’s King Charles III on May 6th in London. Instead, his deputy, Vice President Tiémoko Meyliet Koné, will represent Ivory Coast at the historic event.

    According to reports, President Ouattara had been scheduled to attend the coronation, but due to unforeseen circumstances, he had to change his plans and dispatch his deputy to represent the country.
