Officer declared that they will "put an end to the current regime".

"All institutions of the republic have been dissolved - the government, the Senate, the National Assembly, the Constitutional Court, the Economic Council, the Electoral Commission. We call on the population, the communities of sister countries living in Gabon, as well as the Gabonese diaspora, to calm down," they added.

Meanwhile, videos and photos of people that are happy with the coup started to surface on the internet.

Africa Intel wants to remind everyone that Gabon is not a member of ECOWAS. That is why threats similar to Niger ones will not be possible. Still, Gabon is a member of Economic Community of Central African States (ECCAS). But the only member country with capable army is Chad (like in ECOWAS). If we ignore Chad's neutrality and imagine invasion into Niger scenario, there are not enough power for TWO invasions (if the same threats are going to be addressed to military in Gabon).

The situation gets more and more interesting.
