Ivory Coast opposition leaders on Sunday called for a "civil transition" from President Alassane Ouattara's government, a day after an election they boycotted in protest over his contested bid for a third term. "Opposition parties and political groups call for the start of a civil transition," opposition leader Pascal Affi N'Guessan told reporters, saying they considered Ouattara's mandate over after Saturday's ballot. Tensions erupted in Ivory Coast in August when Ouattara said a reform allowed him to reset a two-term presidential limit to run again, angering the opposition who called it an "electoral coup". Scattered unrest, vandalised voting material and some closed polling stations were reported mostly in opposition strongholds during Saturday's election though Ouattara appealed for calm and his party expected to win. N'Guessan urged Ivorians to mobilise against Ouattara's "outgoing" government. At least 30 people were killed in clashes before Saturday's vote, reviving fears of a repeat of the 2010-2011 post-election crisis when 3,000 people died after then president Laurent Gbagbo refused to accept defeat by Ouattara. de-psf/pma/har
