Le peuple gabonais vote samedi pour d\u00e9cider s’il accordera un troisi\u00e8me mandat au pr\u00e9sident Ali Bongo Ondimba, face \u00e0 Albert Ondo Ossa, son plus s\u00e9rieux rival, derri\u00e8re lequel l’essentiel de l’opposition s’est tardivement rang\u00e9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Quatorze candidats sont en lice pour cette \u00e9lection pr\u00e9sidentielle, avec un peu moins de 850 000 \u00e9lecteurs inscrits sur une population de 2,3 millions d’habitants \u00e9galement appel\u00e9s \u00e0 voter aux \u00e9lections l\u00e9gislatives et municipales, le tout en un seul tour de scrutin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A midi, des dizaines d’\u00e9lecteurs attendaient devant les bureaux de vote du centre de Libreville, dont les rues, d\u00e9cor\u00e9es aux couleurs du seul camp Bongo, \u00e9taient \u00e9tonnamment presque d\u00e9sertes pour un samedi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ces \u00e9lections se d\u00e9roulent en l’absence de m\u00e9dias \u00e9trangers, qui se sont vu refuser l’accr\u00e9ditation ou l’entr\u00e9e dans le pays, comme l’a d\u00e9nonc\u00e9 vendredi Reporters sans fronti\u00e8res (RSF), et sans observateurs internationaux, africains et europ\u00e9ens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
M. Ondo Ossa promet d’\u00ab \u00e9vincer \u00bb du pouvoir le pr\u00e9sident et son tout-puissant Parti d\u00e9mocratique gabonais (PDG) par les urnes, et de mettre fin \u00e0 une \u00ab dynastie Bongo \u00bb au pouvoir depuis plus de 55 ans, et que l’opposition accuse de mauvaise gouvernance et de \u00ab corruption \u00bb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ali Bongo, pr\u00e9sident pendant 14 ans, a \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9lu pour la premi\u00e8re fois en 2009 \u00e0 la suite du d\u00e9c\u00e8s de son p\u00e8re Omar Bongo Ondimba, qui dirigeait le pays depuis plus de 41 ans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
En milieu de matin\u00e9e, M. Ondo Ossa d\u00e9non\u00e7ait d\u00e9j\u00e0 la \u00ab malveillance \u00bb de l’opposition sur son compte Facebook, affirmant que les bulletins de vote de cinq candidats de l’opposition qui s’\u00e9taient officiellement retir\u00e9s en sa faveur \u00e9taient toujours pr\u00e9sents dans certains bureaux de vote, ou que son propre absent chez les autres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Interrog\u00e9, le Centre gabonais des \u00e9lections (CGE), l’organisme qui organise le scrutin, a refus\u00e9 de r\u00e9pondre et a renvoy\u00e9 l’AFP vers les responsables des bureaux de vote incrimin\u00e9s par l’opposition pour commentaires.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
