"Gabonâs military leader, Brice Oligui Nguema, has been declared the winner of the presidential election with nearly 80% of the vote, marking a significant political shift."
"The provisional election results indicate that Nguemaâs win is a culmination of a military coup that ended 55 years of the Bongo familyâs dynastic rule in the country."
Brice Oligui Nguema, who led a military coup in 2023, has won Gabon's presidential election with approximately 80% of the vote, according to provisional results. His closest competitor, Alain-Claude Bilie-By-Nze, received around 3%, while six other candidates garnered less than 1% each. Nguema's victory marks a significant political shift, ending 55 years of rule by the Bongo family. Despite concerns raised by Bilie-By-Nze about the electoral process, Nguema claimed the election was conducted transparently, reflecting the military's growing influence in Gabonese politics.
