Ali Bongo’s illness, the contagion effect of other recent successful coups and palace power tussles are factors responsible for Gabon’s recent coup.
Ali Bongo is the latest in a string of leaders to be ousted in military coups since 2020.
Failed developmental promises, ever shifting domestic elite alliances and popular demand for better living conditions contributed to the military removal of Gabon’s Ali Bongo Ondimba.
Gabon is a wealthy and stable country and this might explain why the January 7 coup attempt failed.
