| Description | Out of the 25 people running to become the next Denver mayor in 2023, plenty have quite compelling backgrounds. But Abass Yaya Bamba, who declared his candidacy to become the Mile High City's chief executive on December 19, stands out the most.
"I have a lot of passion about the politics in my country because we have so much to deal with over there," says Yaya Bamba, a native of the Ivory Coast, a West African nation located between Liberia and Ghana. "We have to make sure that we can have people at least leave poverty."
Most notable on his résumé: In 2019, Yaya Bamba, who has lived in the United States since 1997 and in Denver since 1998, declared his candidacy for the Ivorian presidential election in October 2020. |
