Military says it has seized power in oil-rich Gabon, where the ailing leader's family has ruled for 50 years Soldiers in the west African country of Gabon say they launched a coup "to restore democracy". They took control of the national radio station in the early hours of Monday to read a short statement announcing a "National Restoration Council". Tanks and armed vehicles can be seen on the streets of the capital Libreville. President Ali Bongo took over power in 2009. He reportedly suffered a stroke in October and received treatment in Morocco. Mr Bongo sought to put an end to the rumours about his health with a New Year message in which he said he was feeling fine. Soldiers said they had been disappointed by the message, calling it "a pitiful sight" and a "relentless attempt to cling onto power." https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-46779854 17 Likes 3 Shares |

The President of Gabon Ali Bongo is supposedly an Igbo man, he was adopted from the orphaned Biafra kids sent to Gabon by some charity organisations. He was chosen as a successor by his father Umar Bongo despite efforts by his biological children to frustrate it France has ensured that the family remain in power like in other Francophone countries such as Cameroon, Togo etc for their own interests 32 Likes 2 Shares |
