- A group of senior Gabonese military officers appeared on national television in the early hours of Wednesday and said they had taken power, minutes after the state election body announced President Ali Bongo had won a third term.
Appearing on television channel Gabon 24, the officers said they represented all security and defence forces in the Central African nation. They said the election results were cancelled, all borders were closed until further notice, and that state institutions were dissolved.

Where is the capital of Gabon?
In a Swiss Bank Account 😂😂😂😂
Actually in Paris. Rsearch the CFA, the monstrous scam whereby france continues to suck he life blood out of its former slave colonies to this day.
Nice one 😂👍
When the hostile takeover is more peaceful than the actual elections.
Africa tried been French, English, Belgium and German, now having a go at been Russian.... With a Chinese accent
Anything to end european colonialism and centuries of shameless looting i guess.
What's the African saying........ Oh yess. When Europeans/Americans come we get ethnic/communal violence, looting, colonialism, destabilization, coups that last decades/centuries and then a lecture on how advanced, civilised they are and how backwards Africans are.
When Russians come we get military training and when the Chinese come we get new infrastructure.
And they will again be ruled by foreign powers 😂
Nothing new under the sun
Let one successful coup go, and every military leader in the world thinks they could take over their country with no repercussions
Myanmar
worked in america
Ok then?
These people are rebelling against being western puppets, stripped of there resources. That's why African government's are being overthrown
Well it worked in America
"We...guarantor of the protection of institutions"..."all the institutions of the Republic are dissolved"
😂😂😂
This is nothing new in Africa & there's no reason to believe anything will be different from before.
Somehow, colonialism will be blamed.
Because it is. The family rule for 53 years and France was funding them. They even have house and land in France.
why are french military bases in the Gabonese capital? there are certainly no terrorists there
Obviously, cos France is there exploiting their natural resources.
-cheap gas for e.g
they where protecting the bongo family regime that has ruled this country since their independence
@@ikechukwuokafor4092 - and where is this family from?
This made my day 😍😍😍
Arrest the whole family.
Prophecy has come to pass😢😢😢😢let us wake up AFRICA
Free Africa!!!
From.... Africans?
Well done military 400 years we been crying. Long live Mother Africa
Who is NEXT? 😂😂😂😂😂
Yes lets get this going
Weldone guys
Our dear Africa must be liberated 💪
Liberated from ..... Africans? 🤔
@mikulasczocher8001 wake up 👍
Africa has ben free for decades, that is why the whole continent is in the state it is in .
@@harryhewitt6795 BIG LIE
Africa is opening their eyes
😂🤣😂
Don't be an idiot
Good time to be alive. Africa is freeing itself from leaches. Africa unite
Yeah, africa has a great history of military rule. It always works out!
@@andycockrum1212neither has democracy worked out
True, for democracy to function requires a certain level of evolution . .@@user2024-o4z
@@andycockrum1212 😂😂
@@andycockrum1212millitary role enforced and backed by Europe
Their purpose is to end Bongo Dynasty and it's good but I hope they won't slide to Russia
So what if we slide to russia
From now on, The Niger meddling is impossible... Russia won...
Nem, persze! Franciaország kedvesebb lesz!
@@Beex848Exactly. So what? Why do westerners always think they own the entire planet? Russia has done NOTHING compared to the West in terms of killing innocent civilians (Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen etc) and I would expect the Africans to trust Russia over the USA as I do.
What they do next is really their prerogative.
As a Bengali🇧🇩,I would suggest equal partnership with the west rather than being their slaves or showing out most hostility.

Viva Africa
Ending corrupt regime by the force. 😊
GABON is following NIGER in kicking out France’s puppets!! Another blow for Macaroni…😂😂😂
How will they survive without CROISSANT? ;-)
Dictatorship is not a solution to bad government...its actually a worse scenario...wait for few years and Gabonians will be crying for justice😅😅😅😂
Good only way African leader will change
Did Telegraph leave comments open by mistake? :D
So many bots in the comments
France iron force is fini, finished, cecabo, khalas😂😂😂😂
Is this the Nottinghill carnival
Who's next? 😏
Mr. Bongo... 🤭
Equatorial Guinea should be NEXT.
down with traitor puppets.
Equatorial Guinea is the wild west mixed with voodoo. Not unlike Haiti.
Ugandan want are we waiting???? It’s time we start together to call for an end to M7’s government
There we go again, another one that falls into chaos....
Like Ukraine?
It's about time Africans stand up and unite by whatever means necessary massive Respect to the military.
U really need to read up on the history of military coups in Africa... 🙄🙄
ахаха негры
Am proud to be one..
Proud to have a black daughter... 😍
@@Thechamp254 I think people shouldn't be proud of something they didn't have influence on. This kind of pride can lead to some terrible consequences.
Great. Another Coup.
Joy.
So many unhappy people.
I give up at this point. Bring on the Apocalyptic prophecy, I don’t care anymore.
Mostly peaceful ….
If only we could have this happen in Canada to our corrupt PM Trudeau!
now there's that democratic spirit!
One does the others follow and the next African country to follow will be, just wait a couple of days 😂
Who’s next Africa? How about the ancient Neanderthal called Tinubu?!! Will he be next?!! There is a growing awareness among Africans of their rights and a desire for accountable leadership, and the people are tired of these dynasties. Only a matter of time before we reclaim what belongs to us as black people! Out with France, out with US and out with UK! Time to go back home to our motherland and finish what our ancestors began, time to go back home and defend our motherland! Great Alkebulan has woken up!
Talk like that will turn Africa to dust becarfull

I wish we had military guys with balls of steel such as these , in my beloved country Zimbabwe.
That already happened. When Mugabe was over thrown.

Thanks Russia for the support. 🇷🇺
End of European neo colonialism
Western states liberated their colonies dcads ago, today there ae only two empires, china and muscovy. Both werre literally built on centuries of systematic rape, pillage and genocide against tiny peaceful neighbours, and both continue to threaten and attack their neighbours to ths day.
Russia is really the good guy fr fr
But probably should keep it quit
How is neo imperialism, rape and pillage good?@@daveonrhodes8037
Gabon should now invade South Africa to demonstrate how tough Gabon really is, otherwise the rest of the world will never truly take Gabon seriously.
Look at map little boy
???????????????
😂😂😂😂😂, I will hate to see my African brothers being killed for trying that,
But that was a very stupid joke little boy
😮
@@CitsVariants - Such low aspirations. Dream Big or don't even bother starting.
Only happens in those countries with those people
As a result of decades/century of colonialism of those countries.
Nu wij nog!
