The agenda of the head of state took on a strong political dimension yesterday. And for cause, following the special envoy of the President of the African Union Commission (UA) for the border dispute between Gabon and Equatorial Guinea, Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema also met with the special envoy of the UA for Madagascar, Mohamed Idrissa Farah, and the UN Special Representative to the UA, Parfait Onanga-Anyanga.
These exchanges fit into the framework of the ongoing Refoundation process in the Grande Île, aiming to draw inspiration from the Gabonese experience in managing transition. The head of state presented his guests with the main commitments of the Transition in Gabon, founded on inclusivity, respect for engagements, organization of a national dialogue, and preservation of peace, unity, and social cohesion.
Everything that has constituted the basis of organizing free, transparent, apaised, credible, and accepted elections. With it, a return to constitutional order, restoration of institutions, and dignity of Gabonese people on the foundation of reforms.
The reforms have touched several aspects of society, strengthening transparency in electoral processes and consolidating national sovereignty, while rebuilding trust among citizens in institutions.
Madagascar is also engaged on this path under the leadership of Colonel Michaël Randrianirina. The latter recently praised the success of the Gabonese transition and commended the quality of infrastructure, particularly that of the Omar-Bongo-Ondimba Congress Palace.
