STORYLINE
Ivory Coast's president arrived in Senegal's capital on Thursday night for his first state visit since being sworn in last week.
President Alassane Ouattara flew into Dakar airport where he was greeting by Senegalese President Abdoulaye Wade and other officials.
Senegal's government says Ouattara chose Senegal for his first foreign trip because of the long-standing relationship between the Ivorian and Senegalese people.
Wade angered Ivory Coast's strongman Laurent Gbagbo last year when he received Ouattara ahead of the November 28 election, leading to a diplomatic row.
Gbagbo refused to cede power after losing the November ballot.
Ouattara was finally sworn in last week more than five months after being declared the winner of the vote, and only after Gbagbo was ousted by a military takeover.
