💨 Abstract

Gabon has approved a new constitution by a landslide 91.8% in a referendum, according to the interior minister. The vote, conducted by the interim government following a coup last year, was promised as a steppingstone towards democratic rule. The new constitution introduces a seven-year, two-term limit for the presidency, removes the position of prime minister, and recognizes French as the working language.
