Université de Bouaké : Bras de fer entre l'administration et l’enseignant exilé Boga Sako

Threatened with dismissal for "abandonment of post," Gervais Boga Sako, a lecturer in the Modern Literature department at Alassane Ouattara University (UAO), has broken his silence from the United States. The administration has issued him an ultimatum: he must return to work before January 13, 2026 , or face permanent dismissal.

Refugee status versus administrative requirements: Absent since June 2025, the professor justifies his exile by his status as a political refugee in the USA. He invokes the protection of his freedoms of opinion and expression, while regretting that the university is interfering in political matters. "I serve my country, but no individual," he insisted to 7info .

A history marked by exile. This is not the first time the assistant's career has been interrupted. Already dismissed between 2011 and 2021 for similar reasons, he was reinstated four years ago. Today, the situation is more complicated: Boga Sako denounces the freezing of his bank accounts and the suspension of his salary by the Ivorian justice system, measures he describes as intimidation tactics.
