i live in CÔTE D'IVOIRE. i'm a national of this country too. And during president FELIX HOUPHOUET BOIGNY's time in office; let me remind you all that PR. FELIX HOUPHOUET BOIGNY was the first president of the country. it was constantly reported a lot cases of kidnapping & murders of albino people for ritual purposes in our country! everyone in the country was full aware of this situation but was too scared to utter publicly a word about it! you can't forget that it was the era of dictatorship & pseu-democracy in whole AFRICA!
also the epicentre of these mediaeval practices was the home town of PR. HOUPHOUET which was indeed something like a "no go area" for albino! this situation of fear amongst the albino community and their relatives continues nowdays but at a very very small scale!!!
