The special adviser to President Bola Tinubu on media and publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, has stated that the President is consulting with the African Union (AU) to decide the next course of action about the coup in Gabon.
This follows the announcement of the Gabon Military officers seized power from President Ali Bongo Ondimba, whose family has controlled the country for a half-century. He was declared to have been re-elected for a third term in a disputed election on Saturday, August 26, 2023.
Ngalale in a press statement on Wednesday, August 30, 2023, said President Bola Tinubu is watching closely with “deep concern for the country’s social political stability and at the seeming autocratic contention apparently spreading across different regions of our beloved continent.
The President affirms that the rule of law and a faithful recourse to the constitutional resolutions and instruments of electoral dispute resolution must not at any time be allowed to perish from our great continent.
To this end, the President is working very closely and continues to communicate with other Heads of State in the African Union towards a comprehensive consensus on the next steps forward with respect to how the power in Gabon will play out and how the continent will respond to contagious autocracy we have seen spread across our continent.”
