Ivory Coast's President Alassane Ouattara was heavily favoured to win a second term in a vote on Sunday, Reuters reported. Ouattara, whose leadership has helped the West African nation re-emerge as a rising economic star on the continent, is facing a divided opposition. More than 6 million Ivorians are registered to cast their ballots at around 20,000 polling stations, with voting officially beginning at 7 a.m. (0700 GMT).
