Arise TV host, Rufai Oseni, has claimed that the lies President Ali Bongo and his father, Omar, told Gabonese are gradually being unveiled.
OsunDailyNG reports that military officers on Wednesday announced they have taken over power in Gabon, the Central African country.
They said they were annulling the results of Saturdayโs election, in which President Ali Bongo was declared the winner.
The electoral commission said Bongoโs main challenger, Albert Ondo Ossa, had come in second place with 30.77%, and Bongoโs team rejected Ondo Ossaโs allegations of electoral irregularities.
The same family has ruled Gabon for more than 55 out of its 63 years since independence from France in 1960, and Aliโs second term election was also marred with irregularities and violence.
In a post shared on Twitter, Rufai Oseni frowned at the level of lies being told by many African leaders, stressing the lack of mental capacity and gullibility are why the lies have refused to stop.
He further described the election that produced Ali Bongo as a sham, adding that a military coup is not the best solution to African rebirth.
He tweeted, โThe reason why lies keep spreading is the gullibility and lack of mental capacity to stop the lies. The gullibility is worse than the guillotine.
โLies in Africa are directly proportional to the gullibility of those who believe the lies.
โThe lies Omar Bongo and His Son Ali Bongo told the Gabonese for over 40 years is finally coming home to roost. Ali Bongoโs sham elections!
โI donโt believe the Military can be the hero of African renaissanceโSame Military??? Humor me brothers and Sisters!โ
