2023 Gabonese coup d'état
text:
On 30 August 2023, a coup d'état occurred in Gabon shortly after the announcement that incumbent president Ali Bongo Ondimba had won the general election held on 26 August. It was the eighth successful coup to occur in West and Central Africa since 2020. Even though Nguema is related to the Bongo family, as a cousin of Ali Bongo, the coup brought an end to the 56-year-long rule of the Bongo family over Gabon. It has been described by some as palace coup.
