Military seizes power in Gabon by koiki4bat: 6:28am On Aug 30, 2023 |
A group of senior Gabonese military officers have appeared on national television declaring they have seized power, claiming the recent general election lacks credibility and saying they represent all Gabon’s security and defence forces. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/aug/30/gabon-coup-military-takeover-gabonese-election-disputed 140 Likes 23 Shares

Hehehe. Good one. Watch as AU and ECOWAS rush to condemn the action. They sit down and watch corruption, nepotism and election rigging take over Africa and they do nothing,but once the people react they start to talk . The west also watch as Africa leaders plunder the resources of Africa and they do nothing,but will be quick to react once the people want to take their destiny in their hands. Mr Biden,the gay right activist is only concern about Africa only when is has to do with deviant's,I mean the LGBTQ people. He comes up with his usual,I will stop aid's and bla bla bla once his project LGBTQ is threaten in Africa. But you will never see him talk about election rigging and corruption in Africa. Africa will continue to experience such actions until they start doing the right thing. 773 Likes 74 Shares |

Let's wait for Eebola to send Asari to fight Gabonese sojas. All these monarchical democracy must be put to an end in Africa. And coup de ballot is worse than coup de etat 483 Likes 42 Shares |

Lol! I’m gonna wait to confirm that this is not fake news. But in the meantime, if it’s true, then congratulations to Tinubu, ECOWAS and their brainless warmongers. They now have more countries to invade. After invading Niger, they will invade Gabon. Or are they going to invade Niger without invading Gabon? They have to mad not to. I’m so happy right now, if this news is true. Because I’m sure ECOWAS was already waiting to congratulate President Bongo for winning Third Time in a “free and fair” election even though the report of the Gabonese Electoral Umpire shutting down their Electronic Infrastructure, like INEC did, and even removing names of opponents from ballot papers has been everywhere. Another reason I like this is that the PEPT will see what is happening in other countries because of disputed election. People are waiting on them to do justice, failure of which no one knows what the outcome will be. Democracy is fast becoming unpopular in Africa and it’s because of poor Electoral management. The situation where votes no longer reflect the wishes of the majority of the voters, their will be disenchantment with the people seeking alternative way out. If a coup happens in Nigeria today, Nigerians will celebrate it because we didn’t vote for the idiot in power. If the PEPT likes, let it insult Nigerians like INEC did, let’s see what the outcome will be. 448 Likes 52 Shares |

Seems revolution is finally here now in mother Africa (especially in French Colonies). I suspect this is coming because the oppositions have no voice again, citizens choice are override and citizens are silenced when they raise an eyebrows. The military seems to be intervening for the citizens. 172 Likes 19 Shares |
