S.B comments on the start of health workers’ indefinite strike in Abidjan. On Connection Ivorienne, he states [1] [fr] that:

From the total no-fees for healthcare initiated by the state of Côte d'Ivoire after the end of the post-electoral crisis to free selected healthcare services, employees of certain health institutions have yet to receive their salary in a regular manner. What's worse is that their manager did not get any payments for the past 16 months.
