    The video has received a lot of criticisms from Ghanaian on Twitter, who have slammed President Ali Bongo.

    Below are some comments from Twitter users

    Previously, a video sighted by InsightNewsgh.com of “unwell” Gabon President Ali Bongo Ondimba, who has been overthrown by the military coup, shortly after being re-elected for a third term.

    He can hardly stand unaided on his own, as this recent video of him and the French President makes abundantly clear.

    Military officials in Gabon announced their takeover of power on live national television, claiming that the weekend elections had been fraudulent.

    With 64% of the presidential vote, President Ali Bongo Ondimba, who has been in office for 14 years, was declared the winner.

    Tensions were high and there were fears of unrest following Saturday’s presidential, parliamentary, and legislative elections, in which Bongo sought to keep his family in power after 56 years and the opposition pushed for change in the oil- and cocoa-rich but impoverished nation.
