Talk:Politics of Gabon

Can anyone give me information about a protest march that took place in Port-Gentil, Gabon on 12th June 2000.

We are trying to prevent two friends from being removed to Gabon from the UK. We beieve they are at risk, having been active members of the PGP.

Having read a lot about Gabon and Bongo I have no doubt that there return to Gabon would result in imprisonment and harm. It is clear that Gabon does not treat prisoners of any description fairly. Bad treatment, food and healthcare in prisons is the standard.

Also can anyone tell me why the French government condones Bongo and the actions of his government. Would it be they have more to loose than gain if they tried to ensure fair treatment of the people of Gabon?
