Gabon’s “Republican Union” Calls for Youth Mobilization Ahead of President-Elect’s Inauguration
Historic Event Marks Democratic Transition
The “Republican Union” platform has issued a passionate appeal to Gabonese youth, urging massive participation in the inauguration ceremony of President-elect Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema. The event is scheduled for May 3, 2025 at Libreville’s Angondjé stadium.
A Landmark Electoral Victory
This ceremony will conclude a historic electoral process that saw General Oligui Nguema secure a decisive victory with 94.85% of votes in the April 12 presidential election. The results represent what organizers call “an unprecedented plebiscite” for democratic change.
“This unprecedented plebiscite consecrates the popular will to definitively turn the page on the political practices of the past and to resolutely embrace the era of democratic renewal,”
Youth Called to Shape Nation’s Future
The platform’s coordinator directly addressed Gabon’s younger generation, stating: “Spearheads of the nation, your energy and commitment will be decisive in embodying the ideals of the 5th Republic: social justice, inclusive development and virtuous governance.”
Organizers view the inauguration as more than a ceremonial event – it represents an opportunity to:
- Celebrate democratic progress
- Affirm republican values
- Demonstrate youth political maturity
A Collective National Moment
Moundounga concluded with a powerful call to action: “Young people of Gabon, the time has come for the collective writing of our national destiny. Let us be worthy of this historic opportunity.”
The event is expected to draw significant national and international attention as Gabon enters this new political chapter.
