Gabon Coup Leader Wins Presidential Election
Tap title to read story
Gabonese General Brice Oligui Nguema has been declared the winner of the presidential election with over 90% of the vote, according to provisional results. This follows his 2023 coup. Opponent Alain Claude Bilie-By-Nze conceded defeat. While the Constitutional Court will formally announce the results, the election's fairness has been questioned. Nguema's victory secures his rule for seven years, making him the second Central African leader to win an election after a coup.
