Well done the Military of Gabon and the people of Gabon, I wish this goes to other African countries were justice is much needed. Let’s see if ECOWAS will be able to manage two wars , Niger and Gabon. ECOWAS when is your meeting over Gabon and next it may be Cameron or Nigeria.
Best wishes for abother african nation free from slavery
As a proud melanated African, I am very happy to be alive and witnessing the winds of change sweep through the African continent.
Freedom must come and must be free by 2024
Congratulations on your Independence Gabon 🇬🇦
Nigeria next. Black people are not the stepping stone of the world
Time to embrace the winds of change
It will be very wrong of anyone to criticize this military action. Thanks to these military guys.
Eritrea and Uganda citizens should should step up to remove those dictators.
Gabon: military depose democratic elected president, people cheers

Well done the people of Gabon kicking out the French puppet President Ali Bongo, now kick the stealing French out Gabon another African nation doing the right thing 👊👍
As a Haitian 🇭🇹 I’m proud of my beautiful African people! It’s time for an African revolution!!!! It’s time to lead ourselves!!
Criminal france has to pay for what it did to Haiti and Africa
never give-up 💪
I love Military ruling the nation’s, than the corrupt and greedy politicians, looks like Indian military have no guts to take over the country. It’s time we need to dissolve government and bring a change for better progress of our nation as India goes to moon but my country people sleeping under moon light , it’s really shameful and disgusting.
Poor Ex-president Bongo is still pleading. Sorry, France is not coming.
We are waiting for our army in Tanzania to coup d’etat also coz what that president bongo has been doing for long time is also similar with ccm in our country Tanzania including corruption, selfishness , stealing of votes and misuse of our national resources for their interest therefore we are tired with ccm so you Tanzania army you have to do something for the betterment of our country tanzania like in Gabon I hope this thing soon is going to happen God bless us.
L I B E R T Y..
Gabon almost become sri Lanka
Good coup in Gabon. Bad coup in Niger . Says the colonial Master.
The West had enabled dictators in Africa. They tried to brainwash the people for their own selfish gains. Enough!
More coup is coming. Nigeria, Cameroon, Ivory Coast, Gambia, and so on.
Welldone the military God protects the poor people
L’Afrique est libérée des malveillants colonialistes français
It’s good news.
Africa is on the path of change.
African countries no longer need Western proxy governments.
Most of the African presidents are Western envoys and old-timers who do not want to give up their power while amassing their own interests and wealth, abandoning the lives of the people they lead.
What Africa needs today is a young leader who loves the country and its people.
father don’t call us because u know it’s not fear one family to run the country for 56 year now u are calling for help come get out 😏😏
Tinubu is next
Abiy Ahmed is a racist, a liar, a liar, a murderer, a repressor, a leader who enjoys killing people with drones and tanks. He knows everything.
IAM sure the wife’s white family control a tonne of Gabon resources
Change via military, i doubt it is for public welfare. Its just game of thrones.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
*Gabon, Guinea, Burkina Faso, Niger, Chad, Sudan, Mali, Myanmar.*
under a Military government
Nigerian would join soon I think coup is the only solution for African rulers
Sic Semper Tyrranis
It’s the younger generation who is Brandon about a chain.
Stupid and corrupt African Presidents , next gambia please
Bongo help is not coming my friend, save yourself. You run a country like an animal farm, a family business….
leaders who can only be removed by coups 🥲meaning every time ya’ll realize you got it wrong it takes another coup or several to undo the mistake..such is Africa.

Via dall’Africa il Nazismo Occidentale.
What out Trudeau HONK HONK HONK HONK HONK HONK 🇨🇦 💪 🇺🇸
When the west runs a coup like in Ukraine they bring guttural violence but a real coup is almost bloodless
Zimbabwe should do the same 😊
Cameroon is waiting to announce biyas death

The Generation of the Bongo family should pay for all the atrocities for the 56 years of their tyranny
New heroes rising to safe guard Africa
Paul biya toi c’est pour l’année prochaine .
I don’t support countries under coups junta we had such experience since 1975-1992 but if I had to support one, it will be this one. more than half a century of rule by one family is curse.
🎊🎊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Over 56years only 1 Familie rule the country since indenpence
You are an idiot and you are alone
To make noise through what? Internet is closed ❌😮
The Ball is in the Court of the Judiciary in Nigeria to DELIVER JUSTICE! If they Don’t, ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN!!! A WORD is ENOUGH for the WISE!!!!!
Museveni should be next

The new government should freeze all assets in the country.
When people think they own a country and overstay this is what happens.
Shameless corrupted leaders
Ugandan it’s time to
Wake up. It’s possible to kick m7 regime out of power back to They’re home land
OK, Joe Biden why not give these Guys $80 Billion too like Ukraine ? Or are you a Racist?
Next TINUBU..be ready my friend
Congratulations to my brothers Gabonese I’m so happy Alhamdulillah
Thank you to the people of Gabon. Your voices have been heard so loud. Coup d’etat is the best way to African leaders.
This is great news. Now the USA can cut aid the people surly have it under control. More countries in Africa need to rise up be proud people and don’t take aid from other countries. In the beginning generations will starve to death, but eventually you will be your own country.
La France très contente de ce coup d’état
Ecowas where are you to mke noise
Africa is having its own Arab spring let us hope it is more successful than the Arab Spring because things can always get worse like they did in many parts of the Arab world

It’s heart breaking to see third of gabonese citizens leaving in poverty in oil rich country.
This Bongo family ruled Gabon for 55 years on behest of Paris. It was not a democracy but a monarchy 😅 Controlled by France.
Same thing is needed in qatar too😂
56 years is not normal anywhere in the world. This is crazy. Father and son for 56 years ?
How long has the same family run Qatar? 200 or 300 years😮?
what will west do now to secure their resources?
A cousin to Bongo? I hope this guy wont mess Gabon like his gready cousin.. Africans needs to brutally overthrow and hold to account these types of gready n foolish dictators
True military force
Rise Africa 😢
congratulations …… Gabon 🇬🇦
Congratulations Gabon! Proud of you guys Gabonese and Africans!
