Gabonese opposition Leader, Jean Ping has been temporarily banned from leaving Gabonese territory. A Libreville court Judge reportedly ordered border police to prevent him from leaving the country.
Ping was summoned by a court on Friday as a witness regarding an investigation into opposition leader Pascal Eyougou, who was arrested in Libreville last September. His spokesman Jean-Gaspard
Ntoutoume Ayi, said Ping must defend himself after being “widely quoted” by Pascal Eyougou, for “conspiracy against state authority”.
