Description
Thousands gather in Abidjan in support of Tidjane Thiam, the presidential candidate of Ivory Coast's main opposition PDCI party, who was struck from the electoral list ahead of the October vote. "We have come to fight," says Rachelle, a PDCR supporter at the rally. In April, an Abidjan court removed Thiam from the electoral list, arguing the 62-year-old had lost Ivorian nationality when he acquired French citizenship in 1987. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
