RICHARD ATTIAS HIGHLIGHTS ALI BONGO’S INFANTILISM. RICHARD ATTIAS MET EN ÉVIDENCE L’INFANTILITÉ D’ALI BONGO

Image
Richard Attias, Ali Bongo, et épouses/and spouses English version The dictionary tells us that to infantilize someone is to have toward that person a condescending attitude, debasing them to the level of reflection of a child unable to cope independently, especially incapable of making decisions and judgments that have sense. By reading and analyzing the recent letter written by Richard Attias to President Barack Obama, we could not miss to pick up on the undertone of the profound infantilization in which the content of that letter confined Ali Bongo, the assumed president of the Republic of Gabon. This sentiment certainly deserves an explanation, and we give it to you here. You see, dear readers, when Richard Attias wrote to Barack Obama to tell him about the so-called "exploits" of the Gabonese Presidency in the field of employment and vocational training, even asking the U.S. President to financially support an initiative of the Gabonese presidency, on

RICHARD ATTIAS WRITES TO BARACK OBAMA ON BEHALF OF HIS CLIENT, ALI BONGO. RICHARD ATTIAS ÉCRIT À BARACK OBAMA, AU NOM DE SON CLIENT ALI BONGO

English Version It is in the columns of the web site “The Huffington Post” that Richard Attias, Ali Bongo’s impresario and promoter of the New York Forum Africa, has published a letter to President Barack Obama, coinciding with the visit the US President is undertaking in Africa. In reading that letter, it looks like Attias wanted to find a way to insert Ali Bongo into Obama’s African agenda, given that the US President would not be visiting Gabon. The letter itself is laughable and totally superficial; but we must publish it here so our readers can find out what Attias and Ali Bongo are up to and how desperate they are to get Obama’s attention. Below is the letter in its integrality. Barack Hussein Obama President of the United States of America The White House Washington, DC 26 June 2013 Dear Mr. President, In a few hours you will touch down in Africa on a much-anticipated visit. Africa is deeply rooted in my DNA. It is the continent where I was born, it is where

WHY WE PUBLISH PICTURES OF RITUALS OF CRIMES, AS HORRIBLE AS THE MUTILATIONS MAY BE! POURQUOI NOUS DIFFUSONS LES PHOTOS DES CRIMES RITUELS, AUSSI HORRIBLES QUE SOIENT LES MUTILATIONS!

Photo MOE English version After the publication on our blog of the gruesome pictures of the mutilated corpses of Stessy Effa Nguema and her friend, many of our readers wrote to us to express their anguish that they could read the text but could not look at the pictures which were too upsetting to have been published. For these readers, we could have just published the text and the picture the young Stessy while still alive and that would have been enough. They ask us why we found it necessary to publish the pictures of the dead bodies. Dear readers, this blog has always told you that its value a free debate without lip service and this is why we are going to answer these readers as plainly and honestly as we can. Here is our position regarding the publication of such pictures. This blog believes that given the level of barbarity ongoing in Gabon at the moment, where young and not so young people, children and women are hunted and brutally murders for the harvest

THE VEHICLE OF AN INDEPENDENT JOURNALIST IS TORCHED, A WARNING? LE VÉHICULE D’UN JOURNALISTE INDÉPENDANT EST MIS Á FEU; UN AVERTISSEMENT?

Photo: Jonas Moulenda English version His name is Maximin Mezui and is Managing Editor of the independent newspaper "La Une" that we publish fairly regularly on this blog. He is therefore a journalist "not-aligned" on the wishes of those in power. On the night of Monday, June 24, 2013, his car, a Mitsubishi Pajero, was torched outside his home. In a normal country, this incident would have been rightly considered a regular crime and the public would have had every justification to allow the competent authorities to conduct their investigation quietly, knowing that it may lead to a resolution. But here we are in Gabon and not in a normal country. We are in a country where independent journalists are regularly threatened, arrested and sometimes sequestered as was the director of the newspaper "Echos du Nord" who was abducted by the police and locked in the trunk of an unmarked car and driven to an unknown destination; or Jonas Moulenda

THE ALI BONGO REGIME DOES NOT SUBMIT TO EXAMINATION OF ITS RECORDS! LE RÉGIME ALI BONGO NE SUPPORTE PAS LE BILAN!

You do not believe that? Ask the state media to give you a summary of Ali Bongo’s four years and you will be served. But if you happen to have the temerity as a free person and free people to want to make an uncompromising record of the tyranny in power in Gabon, as tried to do it on RFI (Radio France Internationale), a debate between the regime and the opposition and civil society, the regime representatives responded by hiding behind old dogmas, reviewed, corrected and updated to be used as a shield and legitimize its many abuses.   Under the Bongos, everything stems from their ideas. There are no civil liberties, no political freedom and certainly no fre

ANOTHER ABOMINABLE CRIME IN GABON, THIS TIME IN PORT-GENTIL! ENCORE UN CRIME ABOMINABLE AU GABON, CETTE FOIS Á PORT-GENTIL!

  Stessy Effa Nguema   Stessy Effa Nguema's body Le corps de  Stessy Effa Nguema The other body in another room Le deuxieme corps dans une pi è ce voisine Photos: MOE English Version The high criminality in an atmosphere of total impunity continues to be rampant in this Bongos’ Gabon. As you can see above, our compatriot Marc Ona Essangui received from the family of the deceased, Stessy Effa Nguema, photos of her body and that of her girlfriend, all tied up and with stigmas that have led the family to conclude that they were the victims of a ritual crime. The parents say that these photos represent the bodies as they were found on June 13, 2013 in Port-Gentil. This discovery was made in a house under construction, which, moreover, was closed, and in the care of a watchman. The young Stessy Effa Nguema had her feet and hands tied. The parents are also adamant that the breasts, tongue and genitals had been removed. In the same house under construction,

IS GABON STILL A SINGLE AND INDIVISIBLE UNIT? LE GABON EST-IL TOUJOURS UN ET INDIVISIBLE?

English Version In an exercise of political gamesmanship whose objective was essentially to silence former members of the regime who have since joined the opposition, Ali Bongo announced loudly in 2011, that he was demanding that light, all the light Please, be made on the management of rotating festivities commemorating the independence of Gabon. Indeed, Omar Bongo Ondimba had instituted an annual mechanism for organizing festivities to commemorate the Independence Day by rotation in all provinces of Gabon. This organization was often delegated to politicians from these provinces and they were handpicked by their proximity to the center of power. When Ali Bongo made his declaration of an inquisitorial audit in 2011, he was mainly targeting Jean Eyeghe Ndong, a former Prime Minister who was in office when just the province of the estuary organized for the last time as the was the practice under Omar Bongo, this independence Day. Although Jean Eyeghe Ndong did not man

A PARTIAL FINANCIAL AUDIT REPORT OF EXPENDITURES RELATED TO THE ROTATING INDEPENDANCE DAY FESTIVITIES IN GABON. RAPPORT FINANCIER D’UN AUDIT PARTIEL DES DÉPENSES LIÉES AUX FÊTES TOURNANTES AU GABON

English Version Ali Bongo constantly threatens to prosecute unscrupulous officials who embezzled money from projects related to rotating Independence Day celebrations. Thanks to friends of this blog, we present here a financial audit report for these rotating celebrations in all provinces of Gabon, all? Not really because as you will read in the report below, all provinces were examined, except for two "special" provinces: the sister provinces of Haut-Ogooué and Ogooué-Lolo. We must therefore believe that when it comes to looking into public spending in the provinces, one must be careful when wanting to examine the Haut-Ogooué and Ogooué-Lolo because what applies to all provinces of Gabon, is the not necessarily the same when it comes to Haut-Ogooué and Ogooué-Lolo We let you read the report and will come back with an analysis in a future post. The report published here is in french. Version Française Ali Bongo menace continuellement de poursuivre l

HOW WOULD THE GABONESE REGIME EXPLAIN THE HOLE ON THE LEFT SIDE OF AMADOU YOGNO CHEST? COMMENT LE RÉGIME GABONAIS VA EXPLIQUER LE TROU SUR LE FLANC GAUCHE DU THORAX D’AMADOU YOGNO?

Pictures of Amadou Yogno showing an opening above the heart Photos d’Amadou démontrant l’ouverture sur le thorax au-dessus du cœur English Version The Gabonese authorities continue to innovate. We are witnessing world premieres all-round, not only in the field of medicine where we are told that coroners in front of more than 100 witnesses, having recognized organs to be morphologically human, were in fact wrong as far of the species of mammals was concerned, body parts such as hearts and reproductive parts in their human versions were eventually transformed into elephant trunk’s meat by the Gabonese judicial system without any care for the public’s common sense; they are innovating also the world of criminal investigations, where the importance of the evidence is no longer linked to their proximity in time and place to the crime itself, no; the truth is now the product of the plush offices of the regime’s nomenklatura, probably the sponsors of these crimes to begin
