ARISE AFRICA! ! !
VAMOS AFRICA. WE NEED TO TAKE CONTROL
How many times has this happened before? Will anything change?
@muhammad ash shiddiq with the help of the west.
@maurice ochieng macias nguema was anything but pro West.
he was so anti-western that he even banned western sounding name and modern medicine.
@fireinthelake lower your expectations and you will never be disappointed.
@muhammad ash shiddiq could they be any lower?
@fireinthelake perhaps, historically, it is not uncommon for revolutionary leader to be just as corrupt and authoritarian as the rulers they overthrew. Sometimes even worse.
I feel bad for the people in these countries. Because very seldom has a military takeover ever led to a better situation for the common people. More often than not it’s just somebody who wasn’t happy with their cut of the pie, so they’re only goal is a redistribution of their share.
@Dan Awhen has military rule favored Nigeria? I know Nigeria government are corrupt but what we need now is not another Abacha who took all of Nigeria gdp into his pockets and allocated them overseas rather than military rulers why don’t Nigerian citizens stand up to their leaders themselves
We can give two sh*ts about your empathy. Door’s that way.
@Keltin5567_ It’s never been about Wagner. They’re just an overglorified mercenary group looking for a new home…
@Dan Awtf!!! You forgotten about Abacha? Things were far worse then
@david k.d.have you forgotten, th king of all monsters, Leopold,of Belgium, who chopped hands of entire families in Congo?
Abacha ,was a sponsored terrorist who th military forces sorted out.?
Throw away the yoke of all the foreigner influencr…. rise Africa
Oh well ❤
Wth is happening 😂?
People are tired of fake democracy that only serves western colonial masters
Yeah Africa, We are getting frier.
❤ Brilliant! Alhamdulillah!
😂👏😂🥳🎉✌✌🏆🎉🏆✌God bless Gabon! 🇬🇦
Please tell me this is not another coup?😮
W w III on da horizon😅
So America coming soon
I hope that they succeed in expelling the French colonizer off
I hope that they succeed in expelling the French colonizer off of the country
Africa need united against France… NATO is strong, they will try to attack
Well done brother’s
One family has been enjoying Gabon resources for decades. It’s time for them to go well done military leaders. ✌🏿
Until the military or gangs get to much power greed. Happens in the west look at Canada which is under a dictatorship.
Haiti and Myanmar are still in dictatorships Haiti full of gangs that rivals it’s own military and Myanmar was under the total control of the rebel military that mutinied.
I don’t see any prospects happening positively if they go with either the west or east
@GeorgeBro Canada is not a dictatorship lol.
Good for Gabon!!!
The biggest danger of all. Is that taste of power and almost near omnipotence. It’s the old government that’s was effen things up, and now some trigger happy rigthous man is taking over, i they now come bring real change and establish a system to maintain a stable system to be passed further ahead to other and not get hooked on the Sweet, sweet power.
France need left Africa!!!
God bless you people
Very good ❤❤❤❤ He wanted to rule for Life 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Like father like son.
Ugandan military what are you thinking??

Wake up to thé reality 😅
Here we go ! Another one , west Africa on fire 🔥
God bless gabonice military
Africans stand up!!!!! We have to take control of our own affairs. Now!!!!! 👊🏿
@Jake Richards There could be Global south globalization this time, no political ideological entity should have dictating & blackmailing power on anyone or any continent.
@Shiv Robinson Every country ruled by the military keeps its people on their knees. There is no voting in a junta.
@Jake Richards it went the black way
@Shiv Robinson that would be so easely arranged, sadly your betters have morals, and also think exterminating a whole people is rather distasteful 😂
@idkimlikereallybored we don’t take advice from YT people around here . Especially regarding morals and ethics. Thanks
The Africa revolutionary starter package outfit
Time for Ecowas must become free of france
This is why Africa is poor
A military dictatorship will make Africa even poorer
Respect to the Gabonese people.Silence the dictators that abuse the term,”democracy.”
miltery goverment is always dictator
and dictator always end up civil war
Uprooting France thi is good news
Cameroon 🇨🇲 Togo 🇹🇬 ivory coast 🇨🇮 Angola 🇦🇴 Senegal 🇸🇳 NEXT ,
THE MILITARY SHOULD TAKE A STEPS FOR REVOLUTION ,
Viva Gabon 🎉🎉🎉
God will never forgive those who are enslaved by Satan. Thank you for bringing your country out of it ❤
Next stop ghana
Bastards. All the black girls and women have had their votes thrown out. They have no say.
I hate coups.
They are so selfish.
Say what you want about the West, but at least black girls and women there have a legal SAY in things
You know a crazy fact: the nation that still holds it’s colonial assets and has them as 2nd class citizens under 1 flag is France
Glory To God 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾. MIGHTY AFRICA IS FINALLY WAKING UP 😀😀😀😀
The coup spree in west Africa is sensational
Al Jazeera,whos side do you represent,there is an african spring waking up and standing against Imperial powers, choose your side carefully.
What next?….
Let’s hope this is actual progress for these African nations, not just a proxy war for Western Europe vs Russia.
This time it looks like Global south globalization more than proxy war. Let’s see how Brics globalization trade system takes place. Its nothing wrong to have another globalization system option to world countries, monopoly in anything is never good.
It all depends if you’ll be the next corrupt government leaders or not. It’s all big talk until results happen. If government is dissolved, then you’ve just called a problem to societal unification and systems which were in place. Now putting them back in place easily is much harder than coup take overs.
Well done ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ 🎉
I’m indeed pleased to see this Act
God bless you good soldiers
Senegal is next
This indeed is a reality check for all brutal governments in the West Africa Region
who has a gun, has a right 😀

Who gave the right to govern to the Army?
Why they speak French? Why not their own language?
Nigerian military is happy with their money. So no thanks for now. 😂
West Africa is slowly sinking. Military Dictatorships everywhere.
In future most of the African countries leaders shall be addrs as General, captain, sergeant etc instead of doctor etc… 😂😂i think they even dont have electricity
