"LE GABON ENERVANT" OR "ANNOYING GABON"

 

 

English version Following the broadcast of the video clearly and indisputably demonstrating that C’BON is utterly dismissive of the law in Gabon, even if the victims this time are the Bongo-Valentin family, the union of oliguists scouring the internet is trying to tell us that the very divulgation of this video should be more condemned than its content. These people certainly have consistency in their ideas. But these oliguists who are playing semantic tightrope walkers, must know that there is a law based on a deep moral and historical truth, especially when one examines the internal workings of these totalitarian systems: one cannot remain clean while supporting such a regime. Any active support, even at an executive level (administration, propaganda), is essential to maintaining the regime, which is intrinsically founded on violence and repression. The collaborator becomes a cog in the machine that crushes freedoms and human rights. The union of oliguists wants to deny the truth, ev...

English version The most zealous oliguists remind us that Ali Bongo ordered the shelling of Jean Ping’s headquarters. Yes, they are right; that was an extremely serious, heinous crime, for which Ali Bongo should have been tried and convicted based on the facts. The same oliguists also tell us that Sylvia and Noureddine Bongo-Valentin looted the country. They are right again, and here too, the courts should have ruled on the matter. Instead of due legal process, we are being presented with the parody described above. The idea is that justice must be rendered according to established laws and fair procedures, regardless of the accused. If injustice is tolerated for some, it then threatens everyone. Even the worst criminals retain a fundamental human dignity, and modern justice systems should be designed not to stoop to the level of cruelty displayed by the worst criminals. If we accept injustice for proven criminals, such as the Bongo-Valentins, we open the door to injustice for everyone...

English version Serge Thierry Mickoto Chavagne has been the Ambassador of Gabon to Belgium and Permanent Representative to the European Union (EU) and the Organisation of African, Caribbean and Pacific States (OACPS) since 2021. However, he previously served as the Managing Director (Administrateur Directeur Général or ADG) of the FGIS(Fonds Gabonais d'Investissements Stratégiques – Gabonese Strategic Investment Fund), a position he held for about eight years, starting in 2012. But the most important thing is that Mr. Mickoto is a pure product of BGFI BANK; an 'Oyima boy' just like Brice Lacruche-Alihanga or Yann Koubge. The FGIS is supposed to be the exclusive manager of the Sovereign Wealth Fund of the Gabonese Republic (FSRG). Its main objective is to manage Gabon’s resources and catalyze sustainable investments to diversify the Gabonese economy and reduce its dependence on oil. The press is announcing an open secret: the FGIS is struggling financially. The performance o...

English version C’BON has announced the ban on imported broiler chickens starting in January 2027. This represents a colossal challenge given the current situation, as current figures indicate a massive dependence on imports: Current Local Production: Approximately 4,000 tonnes per year. Estimated National Demand: Approximately 59,000 tonnes per year. Quantity Imported: Approximately 55,000 tonnes (more than 90% of demand). The gap to close is therefore more than 50,000 tonnes in just over a year (starting from the current date of November 2025). The risk that Gabon will not be ready is real and is linked to several bottlenecks: Time: The January 2027 deadline is very soon for such a structural transformation. Poultry Feed: This is the "sinews of war" (the main critical factor). Local production of corn or other substitutes (like cassava) is not yet sufficient or industrialized to meet a demand of 59,000 tonnes. Logistics and Infrastructure: Developing storage, processing, an...
