Gabon Opposition Leader Reignites Election Row.


Gabon's opposition leader Jean Ping has again claimed victory in elections held in 2016, as President Ali Bongo is being treated in a hospital abroad.

He said this ideal was the one conveyed in the August 2016 poll, adding it was him who really won most of the votes.

Mr Bongo, whose family has governed the west African nation for some 50 years, is currently being treated at a hospital in Saudi Arabia's capital Riyadh.

There has been no official news about the president's condition since an initial announcement 10 days ago that he was extremely tired and needed to rest.
