“I'm sad because I think our women no longer have the courage. They took over when our men were in prison. They acted exactly like the men. My mother was one of the 4,000 marchers in Grand-Bassam. They were angry because their children, husbands, and brothers were in prison. That's a woman's vocation: to defend society. A woman who divides is no longer credible. Because she gives life, she must always bring people together.”
