Gabonese Army Officers Announces Takeover after Ali Bongo was declared winner In Recent Election
Senior military officers in Gabon made a surprise appearance on Gabon 24 national television, stating that they had taken control of the country.
These officers stated their intention to overturn the results of Saturday’s elections, in which President Ali Bongo was declared the winner.
“In the name of the Gabonese people … we have decided to defend the peace by putting an end to the current regime,” the officers said.
The country’s electoral body earlier declared that Mr. Bongo received over two-thirds of the votes, a figure that the opposition has challenged owing to claims of electoral fraud.
Sporadic gunfire has been reported in Libreville, the Gabonese Capital city.
If the military’s move is successful, it will be the latest African country to do so.
