Ivory Coast First Lady sentenced to 20 years imprisonment for post election violence

Former Ivorian First Lady Mrs Simone Gbagbo has been sentenced to 20 years imprisonment by an Ivorian court for organizing post election violence after her husband, Laurent Gbagbo lost out in the 2010 Presidential elections in Ivory Coast. 

In a unanimous judgement today March 10th, the court said Mrs Gbagbo together with her husband's supporters, after rejecting the results from the elections that saw her husband's main rival, Alassane Ouattara declared winner of the election, carried out activities that undermined the state security which left over 3000 people dead. 

 

Laurent Gbagbo's son from a previous marriage, Michel Gbagbo, was also sentenced to 5 years imprisonment for his role in the post election violence. Lawyers to Mrs Gbagbo say they would be appealing the judgement.

      Seriously i don't understand why women who understands the pains of child birth should soak their hands with innocent people's blood and also support violence.

      Exactly the point, fat mama peace is barren-she never did experience the pain of childbirth. She is a greedy, uncouth, bush woman with no home training. She never really knew her parents. This is what happens when the backgrounds of our politicians is not thoroughly checked before putting thm in power.

    This is what the Nigerian government should have done to Buhari for the post election violence of 2011. A man that directed the killing of innocent corps members and several others. Buhari should face the charges against him at ICC... Else he will still cause more violence if he looses this election.

    Buhari should be serving life imprisonment for all the post election violence he's carried out. A man that ordered his hausa cow brothers to kill innocent people because he lost election. Now some foolish Nigerians are supporting such blood sucker to be a president of Nigeria of the 21st century. A man that believes violence is the only way to achieve his aims, his evil brought about Boko Haram that has so far killed thousands of innocent Nigerians.
