The Prime Minister was extremely cautious about the precise timetable for the Transition. Raymond Ndong Sima, however, suggested that it be short enough to avoid a tightening of political sanctions from the international community and Gabon’s economic partners: “ The objective is to demonstrate that the change that took place was necessary and that we are moving in the direction of returning to the norm, and that we are moving in this direction as quickly as possible. »
According to Raymond Ndong Sima, the national dialogue, which will lead to the establishment of a constituent assembly responsible for drafting the future Constitution, could take place between April and June next year. However, starting next week, he will launch a call for contributions to the Gabonese, who will have up to two months to submit their proposals.
« What I am going to ask for is a written contribution in two parts. First, your diagnosis : what is your assessment of the situation ? And then, what are your proposed solutions? ? A secretariat will be tasked with the minister in charge of institutional reform to bring together all of these documents. “, he explained.
It is this document which will serve as a basis for discussions during the national dialogue which could take place next June at the latest. “ There will be no taboo subjects. All issues, including those concerning the military, will be discussed », insisted the Prime Minister.
The soldiers who overthrew Ali Bongo decided that, during the Transition, there would no longer be an opposition or a majority. All Gabonese people are called upon to contribute to the establishment of institutions for better governance of the country after the Transition.
