WHY DID GABON FEEL THE NEED TO FUDGE ITS DEMOGRAPHIC NUMBERS ? POURQUOI LE GABON A-T-IL RESSENTI LE BESOIN D’AUGMENTER SES CHIFFRES DÉMOGRAPHIQUES ?
English version Gabon’s new census (RGPL 2026), validated by the Constitutional Court in late August 2026, set the population at 3,518,621 inhabitants, a 94% increase over 13 years compared to the 2013 census figure of 1,811,079. A growth rate of 94% over a fixed time of 13 years is unheard of; here’s why: At the world’s current average growth rate (~0.9%/year), doubling and near-doubling take a long time: a 94% growth would take roughly 74 years at that rate. At the fastest sustained national growth rates ever recorded in the entire world (3.5–3.9%/year, seen in a handful of countries like Niger or Chad, driven by very high fertility), 94% growth would take about 18–20 years. At the peak of global population growth (the 1960s–70s, when the world grew around 2.1%/year), it would take about 32 years to grow by 94%. So where does Gabon’s claimed jump land? It went from 1,811,079 to 3,518,621 in 13 (2013 to 2026). Working backward, that implies a sustained annual growth rate of...
WHAT IS THE REAL FIGURE OF THE GABONESE POPULATION ? QUEL EST LE CHIFFRE RÉEL DE LA POPULATION GABONAISE ?
English version Here is the English translation: The first general population census of Gabon took place in 1960-1961. The operation combined an exhaustive census with a demographic sample survey, carried out with the assistance of INSEE. The final results, published in 1965, put the Gabonese population at approximately 448,000 inhabitants. This was the first of eight general censuses conducted to date in Gabon, followed by those of 1970, 1980, 1993, 2003, 2013, and 2023. Starting from 448,000 inhabitants in 1960 and the 2013 census (1,811,079 inhabitants), we obtain an average annual population growth rate of about 2.7% over 53 years. Applying this same rate through 2026 (66 years after 1960), we would get: 447,864 × (1.027)^66 ≈ 2.5 to 2.6 million inhabitants This estimate is consistent with the figures from international organizations (UN, World Bank), which put the Gabonese population at around 2.5–2.6 million inhabitants for 2025-2026. But Gabon has just, on August 27, 2026, ...
