The military has again staged a coup in another African country, Gabon, as army officers appeared on national television and announced the takeover from the democratic government.

According to the electoral commission, Bongo won under two-thirds of the total votes cast, but the opposition has argued that the poll was fraudulent.
The development would end the 53-year hold on power by the family of Bongo in Gabon.
