Opposition: Gabon’s new constitution paves way for junta leader to run for President
There are mixed reactions in Gabon after military rulers this week announced that a referendum on a new constitution will be held November 16. The new charter would remove the post of prime minister, a move that critics say gives too much power to the president. As Moki Edwin Kindzeka reports from neighboring Cameroon, the opposition is also not happy that military leader General Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema would be allowed to run for president if the new constitution is approved.
