ABIDJAN: The difficult waters of Ivory Coast politics became even more turbulent on Monday as Vice President Daniel Kablan Duncan quit, five days after the sudden death of Prime Minister Amadou Gon Coulibaly, and with crucial elections less than four months away.

Kablan Duncan, 77, handed in his resignation in February on "personal grounds", which President Alassane Ouattara accepted last week, the president's office said in a statement read by chief of staff Patrick Achi. Rumours that Kablan Duncan would be leaving office have circulated for several days.

He has traditionally been seen as close to Ouattara, even though he is a member of the PDCI - a party that was once part of the president's political alliance before it joined the opposition. Kablan Duncan served as foreign minister from 2011-12 and then as prime minister in charge of economy and finance from 2012-17.
