Responsible, with the GPP, for numerous acts of violence mainly against populations from the north of the country and opponents of the former regime.
Personally involved in post-election violence (particularly in the Abobo and Adjamé district).
Whilst exiled in Accra, Toure Zéguen founded the "International Coalition for the Liberation of Côte d ' Ivoire", whose aim is to return Gbagbo to power.
From his place of exile he has made repeated inflammatory statements (for example that the press conference on 9 December 2011), maintaining a stance of conflict and armed revenge. He regards Côte d'Ivoire under Ouattara as illegitimate and "recolonized" and has issued a "call on Ivorians ' to drive out the impostors" (Jeune Afrique, July 2011).
Keeps a blog calling for a violent uprising of the Ivorian people against Ouattara.
