This time in Gabon. I don’t know much at all about Gabon’s politics but from doing some quick reading it appears to be yet another ousting of a French puppet just like in Niger.
I love how Reuters makes sure that people know it’s oil rich right away otherwise nobody would care https://www.reuters.com/world/africa/gabonese-military-officers-announce-they-have-seized-power-2023-08-30/
It is too early to make an informed analysis of what happened, why and what the prospects going forward are, we need to wait a few days for the dust to settle, but for what it is worth there are already videos out of masses of people celebrating in the streets similar to what we saw in Niger.

This is becoming a pattern in African states, which were puppets of the French government.
Inshaallah Fr*nce will one day soon loose all total control of african countries
This is so excellent! Already Niger is safer because now the US/French have twice as much enemies to deal with, and twice as little income! The more these coups happen the less and less the Empire can do! We are witnessing something historical!
