In Côte d’Ivoire, Planning Minister Dr Souleymane Diarrassouba met a World Bank delegation led by regional director Seynabou Sakho. The discussion focused on the country’s 2026‑2030 National Development Plan, which envisages investments of about 114 trillion CFA francs to accelerate industrialisation, create jobs and boost economic growth. An advisory group meeting in Abidjan will further present the plan to technical and financial partners.
