Ghana’s West Africa Neighbor Ivory Coast is going through a form of civil unrest over electricity tariffs. The citizens there are protesting against high electricity prices. Initially peaceful, the protest turned violent in the town of Daloa in the Western part of Central Ivory Coast after protesters ransacked offices of the electricity company and police responded by firing tear gas. Similar protests have taken place in the administrative capital of the country, Yamoussoukro where protesters burned tires and set fire to a car belonging to the national electricity company (CIE) before they were dispersed by the police.
