ABIDJAN (Reuters) - Former Chelsea star Didier Drogba has taken a stake in an Ivory Coast gold mine, the latest sign of his increasing engagement in his homeland which is recovering from a decade of crisis that ended in a brief 2011 war.
Drogba, who plays for Turkish side Galatasaray but won fame during an eight-year stint at Chelsea, will take a 5 percent stake in the mine, the west African country's communications minister Bruno Kone said on Friday.
