Gabon’s deposed President Ali Bongo Ondimba has been placed under house arrest. Military officers are quoted as saying President Ali Bongo is under house arrest, surrounded by his family and doctors.

The statement added that one of the President’s sons has been arrested for “treason”.

Meanwhile, reports say the restoration of the internet in Gabon appears to be partial.

It has been cut off nationwide after the elections on Saturday, in what the government said was a move to prevent the spread of false news and outbreak of violence.

It is reported that internet access has been re-established several hours after soldiers announced this morning, they were annulling the result of President Bongo’s re-election.
