Reactions As Bags Of Money Uncovered At Ali Bongo’s Family Residence [Video]

Military officers in Gabon have reportedly uncovered suitcases and bags full of various currencies in the family house of ousted President, Ali Bongo, in the West African country.

Naija News learned that the bags and suitcases of money were found hours after the military took over power following Bongo’s re-election after spending 14 years in power and placed him under house arrest.

It was gathered that the monies were found in Yann Ngulu’s house, the Chief of Staff of the eldest son of the deposed President, Nourredine Bongo.

In the viral video making the rounds on X on Wednesday, the bags could be seen filled with bundles of CFA francs, dollars, and Euros.

His father, Omar Bongo, was in power for 42 years. The Bongo family have been in power for a total of 56 years which led to the coup and has since caused outrage online.
