RE: Could Coup in Gabon Destabilise West Africa?

in Deep Diveslast year

Imagine a political leader on the seat of power for 42 consecutive and solid years under a democratic system of government. I was in shock when I read about the assets he'd amassed with the collective wealth of his people for all those numbers of years in power. If power seizure by the Gabon military will make better the situation, then it's a thumbs up from me.

Sort:  

I live in a country that has been ruled by the same person for about 23 years and I understand very well how the people of Gabon feel. I think that no politician should serve his country for more than 2 terms (8 years). Power that is held for too long corrupts people, I hope everything will be positive for the people of Gabon.
