Prior to the kickoff of the 2023 African Cup of Nations opening match between the host Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire and Guinea Bissau, the capital city of Abidjan in Cote d’Ivoire has experienced significant traffic congestion.
It was learnt in Abidjan on Saturday that the security agencies did their best to put the situation under control.
Newsmen as well as supporters of the two nations had a hectic time accessung the stadium amid heavy security and traffic.
Some of the motorists and pedestrians told NAN that they were disappointed with the traffic situation and called on the Confederation of African Football to make better arrangements to deal with the situation.
Some of them said, however, that they were excited that the African Cup of Nations was taking place in their country.
Despite the situation, some Ivorians were seen dancing and drumming some kilometres away from the Alassane Ouattara stadium to entertain the people stuck in the traffic.
