An Analyst from human rights group Survie has urged caution about the recent Coup in Gabon, warning that the ousting of President Ali Bongo could result in a military dictatorship. The coup occurred after the president won a disputed third term in office, extending his family’s 55-year rule. The analyst highlighted the historical corruption in Gabon, which he attributed to French companies, and called for a change in French influence in the region. France, which has close ties with Gabon, has condemned the coup and is closely monitoring the situation. This follows a series of coups challenging governments with ties to France in the region.
