Don't be so quick! Not all coups are created equal. Unless shown otherwise, this is a France-backed coup (pro-neo imperialist) trying to get in front of an actual revolutionary coup. Everyone and their mom saw this coming and so did the French. France activated one of their man to take control of the wave. All the gabonese are tired of Bongo so they'll support it thinking things will change but they won't. The new leader is the nephew of the president so same family and been working with him for 20 yrs. A revolutionary coup leader will be asking for all the french soldiers out of Gabon in the next few weeks just like Mali/Burkina/Niger. Nothing like this will happen in my opinion (and I hope I'm wrong). France did the same in Burkina when they saw the wave in Mali. They put Damiba and Damiba had to be ousted by a real revolutionnary coup from Traore. For the 1 yr Damiba was in power, he continued the same politic and was actually coddled by France, their media and their west african vassal. When Traore came, the tone changed right away and the sanctions came. French Gov didn't condemn the Gabon coup unlike Mali,Burkina or Niger. Their media are giving positive visibility to the new leader and now portraying Bongo as the evil, the same guy they supported all these years. Bongo stopped all french media (rfi/France 24) from broadcasting. First thing new leader does is restore those channels. All revolutionary coup leaders (mali/burkina/niger) all suspended french media so clearly this guy is pro-france. Another thing. This is an election and we know who won. Why doesn't the new coup leader give power to the actual winner? Why need a transition? We just had an election? Well... it's because the system needs to remain the same. Only the leader name has to change to fool the gabonese! France is anticipating. I bet Cameroon(Biya) or Congo(Sassou) will be next with a french-backed coup to prevent a real revoluationary coup to take place.
Bongo bongo is just like elensky, are appointed by the parasitic west to help with robbing his own nation. U$UKEU led western powers are the source of world sufferings, inflicted for no other reason than greed and vulture capitalism masquerading as freedom and democracy. These western regimes are now sucking its own citizens dry, hence the rising number of protests seen in the west.
Why do people ask African leaders questions like as if France is leaving children. These are grown men who are tired of seeing their people poor and disinfranchised. It's not a coup. It's a clean up.

France is the biggest impediment to African unification. They even have the audacity to send representatives to African Union meetings for the sole purpose of blocking decisions they don't like. They are the only European country that sits in every AU meeting. Once all their stooges are ousted from office, Africans can then look at working together as a continent.
In West Africa, where they still been set on by former colonisers,with the exception of kenya and South Africa. lol, no, where else in Africa has slavery happening in this day and age. Good for them for waking up now. Horn Africa has always flighted the colonisers.
European countries Condemning? Let's have a single family running their entire country for decades and see how they like it... Oh! Wait, it actually did happen before and they called it *"revolution,"* not *"condemnation."*
a revolution is a spur of the momen thing, where a wave simply overwhelms the people. a coup is a small "elite" group. the old president bongo was replaced with a NEW bongo. THE BONGO IS DEAD, ALL HAIL THE BONGO!. you see how its not a revolution? its a coup. and i am praying for the gabonese to be free of military dictators and the newest BONGO.
The plague of Africa - leaders who enrich themselves, their family and friends at the expense of the citizens . The leaders grow richer and the citizens , well they can vote in rigged elections !
Nobody gonna make noise disgraceful, I country of 2 million people rich of oil and many minerals can’t even build a decent hospital for its citizens. Love and support to my brothers and sisters from Gabon 🇬🇦. I stand with you from Senegal 🇸🇳
Every military coup raises challenging ethical and political questions that the international community cannot afford to ignore. The ruling family, with backing from France and other Western powers, has long been accused of diverting the country's vast wealth for their personal gain while the citizenry languishes in poverty. It is deeply unsettling to witness global institutions condemn the coup while seemingly turning a blind eye to years of economic plundering and social injustice inflicted upon the Gabonese people. This apparent double standard begs the question: Why is the world so selectively blind to matters of justice and fairness, especially when Africa is concerned? It raises troubling doubts about the sincerity of international commitments to human rights and equitable development."

Why do western media always say " former french colony " isn't the USA a former British colony and Greece a former colony of Britain but yet this is never used to describe these countries.
The only noise I want to make is that, Mr. Bongo is lucky that this coup is in the new millenium, because in the 70s and 80s coups in Africa, he be dead by now.

Congratulations to Gabon and the people of Gabon. Bravo!
This is the African revolution
The revolution is 📺
France is the biggest impediment to African unification. They even have the audacity to send representatives to African Union meetings for the sole purpose of blocking decisions they don't like. They are the only European country that sits in every AU meeting. Once all their stooges are ousted from office, Africans can then look at working together as a continent.
True😂New revolution
It's in west Africa where African continent have real men...well done Africa, well done Gabon..
In West Africa, where they still been set on by former colonisers,with the exception of kenya and South Africa. lol, no, where else in Africa has slavery happening in this day and age. Good for them for waking up now. Horn Africa has always flighted the colonisers.
East , west, south, remove all the puppets
Gabon army thank you
West Africa sold and sells men
I agree with you I'm not from west Africa but we need your courage to do so and we will do so viva Africa
Rise up Africa
Africa is falling apart. It's a curse for enslaving and selling its people for 1000s of years.
This is the way to go..I love this ..
Calling out to foreign powers for help instead of your own people says everything you need to know.
Thanks for this interview. I like the fact that you invited people who actually understand what’s really going on right now in our beloved Africa.
My boys are doing wonderful work at home. If people arrest Bongo. People are doing fantastic work. Who is Next 😎🤣👍👍👍👍
It seems that there is quite a long list.
Cameroon and Equatorial Guinea are next.
European countries Condemning? Let's have a single family running their entire country for decades and see how they like it... Oh! Wait, it actually did happen before and they called it *"revolution,"* not *"condemnation."*
a revolution is a spur of the momen thing, where a wave simply overwhelms the people.
a coup is a small "elite" group.
the old president bongo was replaced with a NEW bongo.
THE BONGO IS DEAD, ALL HAIL THE BONGO!.
you see how its not a revolution? its a coup.
and i am praying for the gabonese to be free of military dictators and the newest BONGO.
Free the African Continental by ANY MEANS NECESSARY ✊✊✊‼️
To my family from different mothers in Gabon. Yes it’s time to decolonize Africa! 🇬🇦✊🏿
Fine example of protecting against all enemies, foreign AND domestic
its his cousin who's in charge now.
what a joke.
I hope my country Senegal 🇸🇳 comes next. We need presidents who care about us electorates.
The incumbent must have seen the future and wisely abandoned his 3rd term bid. Now to ensure he doesn't put his lackey in.
All countries in Africa need this if they are still being ruled by European interest
Nah too many buckdancers like Akon
The plague of Africa - leaders who enrich themselves, their family and friends at the expense of the citizens . The leaders grow richer and the citizens , well they can vote in rigged elections !
I think Senegal will invade Niger to stop the revolution
Best Wishes to Gabon 🇬🇦 and their New Government 👍💞
Gud job gobon here in Zimbabwe we are facing the same problem we are struggling
the people are a part of the Koo Long Live Moma Africa. thank you
Nobody gonna make noise disgraceful, I country of 2 million people rich of oil and many minerals can’t even build a decent hospital for its citizens. Love and support to my brothers and sisters from Gabon 🇬🇦. I stand with you from Senegal 🇸🇳
Every military coup raises challenging ethical and political questions that the international community cannot afford to ignore. The ruling family, with backing from France and other Western powers, has long been accused of diverting the country's vast wealth for their personal gain while the citizenry languishes in poverty. It is deeply unsettling to witness global institutions condemn the coup while seemingly turning a blind eye to years of economic plundering and social injustice inflicted upon the Gabonese people. This apparent double standard begs the question: Why is the world so selectively blind to matters of justice and fairness, especially when Africa is concerned? It raises troubling doubts about the sincerity of international commitments to human rights and equitable development."
Don't be so quick! Not all coups are created equal.
Unless shown otherwise, this is a France-backed coup (pro-neo imperialist) trying to get in front of an actual revolutionary coup.
Everyone and their mom saw this coming and so did the French. France activated one of their man to take control of the wave. All the gabonese are tired of Bongo so they'll support it thinking things will change but they won't.
The new leader is the nephew of the president so same family and been working with him for 20 yrs.
A revolutionary coup leader will be asking for all the french soldiers out of Gabon in the next few weeks just like Mali/Burkina/Niger.
Nothing like this will happen in my opinion (and I hope I'm wrong).
France did the same in Burkina when they saw the wave in Mali. They put Damiba and Damiba had to be ousted by a real revolutionnary coup from Traore. For the 1 yr Damiba was in power, he continued the same politic and was actually coddled by France, their media and their west african vassal.
When Traore came, the tone changed right away and the sanctions came.
French Gov didn't condemn the Gabon coup unlike Mali,Burkina or Niger. Their media are giving positive visibility to the new leader and now portraying Bongo as the evil, the same guy they supported all these years.
Bongo stopped all french media (rfi/France 24) from broadcasting. First thing new leader does is restore those channels. All revolutionary coup leaders (mali/burkina/niger) all suspended french media so clearly this guy is pro-france.
Another thing. This is an election and we know who won. Why doesn't the new coup leader give power to the actual winner? Why need a transition? We just had an election?
Well... it's because the system needs to remain the same. Only the leader name has to change to fool the gabonese!
France is anticipating. I bet Cameroon(Biya) or Congo(Sassou) will be next with a french-backed coup to prevent a real revoluationary coup to take place.
The international community is bologna
Human rights and fairness is a sham
Like who will protect your rights selfish human beings who are only after personal benefiting agenda
Well said!
I'm surprised you've ever had doubts historically the USA has never honored a treaty that they've signed. It's always been a 🐍.
Gabon's former President Omar Bongo once said "Gabon without France is like a car with no driver. France without Gabon is like a car with no fuel".
A president actually said this? What a m0ron!
Pathetic.
True !!!!!
Ali Bongo looting the African nation horrible 39 mansions in France 🇫🇷 The African nation of Gabon 🇬🇦
It's not a coup if the people are celebrating and relieved with this motion. These are Freedom Fighters. The west should not interfere at all. I pray this will wake up Africa especially the West and Central Africa.
A Kenyan here in support of the coup.
Let's liberate Africa.
African countries must work closely with BRICS
No. It's like going from the frying pan to the fire itself! We don't need to relate to dictators and mafias like Putin!!
Look at the same guy who is shaking right now wouldn't hesitate to use violence with his own people if he got the chance.
Have they in the past. I dont know the history of gabon. I hope the fair better than libya after kadafi was deposed.
@@constancegreiner906 I don't know but 100% happened before it's very common practice in Africa if someone proud journalist feeling himself and write some articles about him he would take him to prison immediately for false accusation ; if some courageous politician try to criticize him he also receive person or worth death plus making life for him and his family hard.
Do not try to have empathy for him these people are sick and have no mercy or soul toward their people they will be glad to kill to keep there money becoming getting richer and richer .
Muzungu hepl me
Africa is so wealthy there is no reason that people should be starving or begging the west 😢
We will make noise Mr. Ali Bongo😂❤
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🎉😂😅😅
a man who shutdown the internet so that the people cannot make noise is calling on people to make noise
Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣❤
Comment is hilarious 😂😂😂
The irony of it 😅
Free Africa
Africa unite
good noises have been heard, good for the people of Gabon! wish you well!
Blessings to you Sir"you are the voice for Jamaican
Why do western media always say " former french colony " isn't the USA a former British colony and Greece a former colony of Britain but yet this is never used to describe these countries.
Gad bless Gabon and its brave people. We see you. We salute you. We support you.
The only noise I want to make is that, Mr. Bongo is lucky that this coup is in the new millenium, because in the 70s and 80s coups in Africa, he be dead by now.
Africa we stand together as one family 👪
Same applies to all other. French colonies in Afrika
Ivory coast next.ivory coast spend billions dollars built 2 big churches, for what.some our streets is not pave, no youth centers,
For years we as Africans have been saying AFRICA MUST RISE" this is the generation that has started this process. It won't be easy but we are relentlessly marching forward.
Every generation as a part to play on liberation and decolonization of the people
Stop smoking weed.😂
Thank you so much for showing a more grounded reality on a African country
Go Gabon…. Support & respect from Serbia 🇷🇸
This Gabon’s former president needs to learn how all Gabon’s people truly live and stop asking for “noise”!!! There’s will not be any noise for the corrupt family that we’re living as p@rasites on the backs of poor people of Gabon.
Nobody will make nous for a criminal leader. The nation say is time to have their nation back simple.😅😅😂❤. Good job
Long Live mother Africa on her children those who do not have the people best interest at heart must go🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲
Thank you Gabon for standing up and fighting for your country. You have set a good example and im sure other African Countries will follow suite. Africa is free. thank you
STOP CALLING IT COUPS!!! IT'S A BEAUTIFUL REVOLUTION!!
It is gabon people who knows there problem may GOD ASSIST THEM
Amen
“MAKE NOISE “WAS A CODE TO THE US OPERATIVES HE EXPECTED TO DO SOMETHING
Why would the US be involved? The US hasn’t done anything in Gabon, even during the Cold War.
What interest do they have in the country is the real question!
As an American I seriously had no idea Gabon even existed.
Do you think we’re talking about American citizens? It doesn’t matter if you have heard of Gabon or not, lol.
@@sharingtherealworld AS AN AMERICAN NO ONE EXPECTS YOU TO
Very nice coup. Necessary coup. Good to see Bongo pleading nonsense. God did not forget Gabon.
God never forgets! He gives people time to Repent, But justice will be done!
Good insight. Just love this Channel for giving us great interviews on global matters
At last Africa is decided to broke colonialism on a black continent.
Best wishes for Gabon and I hope they can create a democracy without corruption and have a great country!
FREEDOM AT LAST
He didn't listen to his peoples "noise" how can we hear your noise
😂 he refused to hear their loud voice locally, now he wants to hear voices from across the ocean.
Rape of the nation😢😢😢
