THE former president of Gabon, who was ousted in a 2023 coup, has been allowed to leave the country and has flown to Angola with his family, the Angolan president’s office said today.
The Angolan presidency posted photos on its official Facebook page of Ali Bongo Ondimba arriving in the Angolan capital, Luanda.
It said that the release of Mr Bongo, his wife and their son came after an agreement between Angolan President Joao Lourenco and new Gabon leader General Brice Oligui Nguema, who overthrew Mr Bongo nearly two years ago and was declared the winner of an election last month.
