A woman gives her fingerprint to a biometric identification scanner to vote for the Ivory Coast presidential elections at a polling station on October 25, 2015 in Gagnoa. Ivory Coast heads into presidential elections on October 25 with the incumbent Alassane Ouattara, campaigning on restoring stability, widely tipped for re-election. But with the country desperately needing a peaceful and credible ballot, opposition figures are crying foul. Around 3,000 died in violence following the last elections in 2010, which pitted Ouattara against former strongman leader Laurent Gbagbo. The crisis was a bloody epilogue to a decade of upheaval, splitting west Africa's economic powerhouse between a rebel-held north and a loyalist south.
