Gabon’s temporary leader, General Brice Oligui Nguema, has announced that he will soon choose people to be part of the temporary government. He wants to show that his government is dedicated to listening and talking with people.
He shared this information on X, which used to be called Twitter, after meeting the President of the Central African Republic, Faustin-Archange Touadéra, during a formal trip to Bangui on Wednesday.
We don’t know when the appointments will happen yet, but the announcement came while they are still figuring out who should be in the National Assembly and the Senate.
In September, Gen Nguema chose the leaders of both the legislative bodies. However, he still has to pick the rest of the members of parliament in the future.
The temporary leader of one country told the leader of another country about the progress made in their government transition since Ali Bongo was removed from power. They also talked about news from the continent and the region, improving their relationship, and the plan to soon open embassies in each other’s countries.
He went to the CAR after meeting the presidents of Equatorial Guinea and Congo-Brazzaville. He wanted their help to lift the sanctions on Gabon after the coup.
