TOPSHOT - A general view of the Banco National Park (R) separated from a precarious neighbourhood by a fence in a part of the commune of Yopougon in Abidjan on March 20, 2022. - In the heart of Abidjan, the Banco National Park is protecting itself against unbridled urbanization that is constantly encroaching on the limits of the "green lung" of the Ivorian economic capital. A long wall is being constructed to surround this park which borders the most popular neighbourhoods of the country's largest metropolis. So the Ivorian Office of Parks and Reserves (OIPR), which manages the country's protected fauna and flora, undertook the construction of this wall, whose work is financed by Japan and the Ivorian government.
