FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Dec. 12, 2013

This is an urgent message from Anonymous:

On December 14, Gabon is having municipal elections. Once more, ritual killings of children and others are being used by politicians who hope to increase their luck before elections. There is someone found dead and mutilated somewhere in Gabon every 1 to 2 days. The killing of young Catherine, 4 years old, in late October 2013 reminded us of the brutality of ritual crimes against children.The phenomenon has increased dramatically since President Ali Bongo's fraudulent elections in 2009.

People of Gabon have asked corrupt President Ali Bongo, for too long, to do something about ritual crimes. He made promises to end them during a mock propaganda march with his wife in May 2013, in response to Anonymous pressure. Nothing has happened.

Ritual killings are fueled by elections and greed. People are killed and mutilated for elections that will be full of fraud anyway. In local elections taking place in Gabon, we see once again the refusal to create a transparent election. Many multiple listings were found in the electoral register. Gabonese challenged the presence of many foreigners as candidates in local elections. Many candidates are members of the Bongo family, including Ali Bongo's mother. The Bongo family has been ruling Gabon for more than 46 years and their fraudulent elections are accepted by the international community.

Gabon is an oil rich country with one of the highest GDP's in Africa, but over 80% of the 1.5 million Gabonese live below the poverty line. The majority make less than US $2 per day. According to Yahoo Finance, Ali Bongo and his associates pocketed 25% of Gabon's GDP in the last 3 years with the help of his international supporters. In the meantime, Ali Bongo authorizes force with tear gas to be used against children of young as 10 years old, protesting for better schools and the return of teachers to class.

International oil, banking and infrastructure firms are supporting this terrible regime in Gabon: Total, Shell, Perenco, Tullow Oil, Sinopec, Vaalco, Citigroup, Bank of America, BGFI, Axa Insurance, Bolloré, Bouygues, Petrolin, Bechtel, New York Forum Africa, just to name a few. Some of the banks (Citi, HSBC, BOA) have been implicated in fraud and money laundering with the Bongo family and their friends. Accountants and lawyers in developed countries are helping as well.

All the big money and corruption is fueling ritual killings because those ordering the killings expect them to bring money and power. The United Nations, including UNICEF, is doing nothing to help children being slaughtered in Gabon. Gabon is a member of the United Nations Human Rights Council. The UN is not doing enough to denounce ritual crimes publicly.

The people of Gabon are fed up. They are tired of being tortured and eaten by the very politicians who are stealing their livelihood. They are tired of the international community praising the Bongo regime for the benefits his greed brings to their corporations.

Anonymous has lost patience with the Bongo regime and his enablers.
