Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Sunday (22 May) commiserated with residents of an internally displaced persons' (IDP) camp in a suburb of Côte d'Ivoire's commercial capital, Abidjan, pledging that the United Nations will stand with them as they endeavour to rebuild their lives and restore stability in their country.
Ban told the IDPs at the Union des Eglises Evangéliques Services et Eouvres (UEESO) camp in the Cocody commune of Abidjan that his heart was that the reason he was there was to express his solidarity and “to offer help and hope” that their lives “will soon return to normal.”
He assured them that the UN will continue providing basic services, such as water, food, shelter and health care and sanitation, to those displaced and others in need until they are able to return to their homes, stressing that no one will be compelled to return to their places of origin until they are ready to do so.
He urged the IDPs not to lose hope in the face of the harsh realities of life the camp, telling them that Côte d'Ivoire is making a fresh start.
