Gabon: A national dialoge to 'help heal wounds'

Gabon has begun a national dialogue, which it says will help heal the nation and help pave the way for a return to constitutional order

Gabon has opened up, what it calls, an inclusive national dialogue. Catholic Archbishop Jean-Patrick Iba-Ban who is leading the initiatve, said it should heal the wounds inflicted on the people of Gabon by former leaders who were more interested in power than the people they were called upon to lead. We'll hear analysis.
