Côte d’Ivoire: When Mr. Jean-Louis Billon advocates for generational renewal in 2025
In 2021, Mr. Jean-Louis Billon expressed a clear vision for the future of Côte d’Ivoire, advocating for young people to take power in 2025. He believes that the country’s leadership must be renewed with fresh ideas, driven by a new generation of leaders capable of addressing contemporary challenges. For him, the future of the country lies in the hands of the youth, who are better equipped to leverage technological opportunities and offer innovative solutions.
Mr. Billon also criticizes the fact that retirement is often limited to specific professions, such as teaching or the police, while it should also apply to leaders of businesses and institutions. He argues that, after the age of 75, it is no longer possible to govern effectively, and younger individuals should step in to inject new energy into the management of public and private affairs.
For him, this generational transition is essential not only to modernize governance but also to ensure more inclusive development. He calls for broader reforms that would allow young people to take on responsibilities and bring a renewed vision to key sectors of the country, both politically and economically.
In conclusion, Mr. Jean-Louis Billon believes that 2025 should mark the beginning of a new era for Côte d’Ivoire, where young leaders play a central role in transforming the nation. He advocates for a profound change in governance practices, making the youth the driving force behind the country’s future development and growth.
