"LE GABON ENERVANT" OR "ANNOYING GABON"

      English version   The recent interview by Albert Ondo-Ossa was refreshing in the sense that there is an element of idealism in the committed intellectual, involved in society, whose orientation he seeks to change towards a better mobilization of resources in order to reduce the constraints in which the populations are struggling.   It must be recognized that without this idealism, the intellectual often appears as a civil servant concerned with their professional career, speaking of their research with detachment, feeling nothing. It is good to use knowledge to try to transform society.   Unfortunately, the knowledge of people like Albert Ondo-Ossa seems to clash with ideological, political and social interests that feel threatened by the audacity of the intellectual who dares to propose another paradigm according to which society is likely to be transformed by the voluntary action of its intellects. What Albert Ondo-Ossa presented is the need to define missions,

 

      English version   The CTRIst Aminata Ondo brought us the Gospel according to Saint Oligui-Nguema, telling us that a "normal" Gabonese could only be someone whose two parents are absolutely Gabonese pure wool, knitted tightly!   If these criteria are adopted, here is a partial list of people who will cease to be considered normal Gabonese:   1.             André Raponda Walker 2.             Philippe Maury 3.             René Radembino-Coniquet 4.             Rose Francine Rogombe 5.             Mamadou Diop 6.             André Gustave Anguillet 7.             Lucie Milebou Aubusson 8.             Michel Mboussou 9.             René Morvan 10.          Maurice Leflem 11.          Jean-Bernard Saulnerond-Mapangou 12.          Patrick Eyogho-Edzang 13.          Guy-Bertrand Mapangou 14.          Guy Rossatanga-Rignault 15.          Serge Mickoto Chavagne 16.          General Jean-Fernand Roux 17.          General Germain

 

      English version   2025 is approaching; we all know that Brice-Clotaire Oligui-Nguema will nominate himself as the principal candidate for president of Gabon. Is this going to be the ascent of a man serving the interests of the many, or those of the few? After one year leading Gabon, has Brice-Clotaire Oligui-Nguema demonstrated that he was suited for the office of president for the long term? Is he a person whose values, temperament, ideas and language are directly in line with what the people of Gabon would want from their president?   For decades, a large majority of Gabonese have said that they are dissatisfied with the direction of the country, and the results prove them right. The social, political and economic stagnation of the country has left many Gabonese frustrated and despondent.   Normally, in a democracy, once pursues electoral power in service to solutions for the country’s problems, to building a better society with a vision rooted in the values

      English version   The Constitutional Court of Gabon was created on 26 March 1991. Mrs. Marie-Madeleine Mborantsuo was appointed first president of this court in October 1991.   Between 1991 and 2023, Mrs. Marie-Madeleine Mborantsuo validated 6 presidential elections in Gabon; all of which were rigged for the benefit of Omar or Ali Bongo.   After the 2023 coup d'état, the Gabonese could have expected that figures like Mrs. Marie-Madeleine Mborantsuo would be put on the sidelines, at the very least, of the affairs of the Gabonese state.

That's distressing!   Caution, this blog does not say that Mrs. Marie-Madeleine Mborantsuo should be silent and no longer be heard; no, we grant her the same rights as any Gabonese citizen. However, the repugnant record
