General Brice Clotaire Oligui Nguema chose the prestigious Moroccan salon of the Palais du bord de mer to receive the Alternance 2023 executives. Upon entering, each guest was treated to a long and warm embrace with the new strongman of the country.
For the past few days, a standoff has been born between the Alternance 2023 platform and the Committee for the Transition and Restoration of Institutions (CTRI). Alternance demanded the continuation of the compilation of the results of the presidential election of August 26th.
