In a call for national unity this Wednesday, November 13, Mike Jocktane, an important figure in the political transition in Gabon, expressed his unreserved support for the new constitution proposed during the referendum. Describing the President of the Transition General Brice Oligui Nguema as a “ visionary patriot », he stressed that this project marks significant progress, both politically and societally. According to him, the constitutional reform aims to offer Gabon a more democratic and equitable future, while respecting the aspirations of the people.
In his speech, Mike Jocktane spoke of the sincerity and commitment of the president of the transition, paraphrasing a statement by General Brice Oligui Nguema during their recent exchange: “ I love Gabon and when I say that I want to change Gabon, I am as sincere as you “. For him, this revision of the Constitution is not limited to a simple change of text, but embodies a real turning point for the country. He welcomed the significant societal and social progress, particularly in terms of parity and recognition of rights linked to the issue of gender, the protection of children and crucial issues for the harmonious development of Gabonese society.
Major political reforms put forward
The former presidential candidate also highlighted the major political reforms provided for by the new Constitution, including the establishment of a two-round presidential election, the limitation of presidential terms, as well as guarantees on intangible provisions that cannot be modified without broad national consultation. He stressed that these measures are essential to guarantee political stability and the proper functioning of democratic institutions, while putting an end to the era of authoritarian excesses.
Convinced by the common sense of this analysis and by the arguments of the transition, Mike Jocktane called on the Gabonese to show responsibility and to vote “ Oui » during the referendum. According to him, this revision of the Constitution constitutes the key to breaking the current impasse, by ensuring the return to civilian power and allowing the democratic fight begun after the events of last year to continue. A ” Oui » majority in the referendum would be a strong signal for the future of Gabon, according to Mike Jocktane, determined to see his country flourish in a democratic and inclusive framework.
