Libreville, 15 June-(ANA)-No current or former member of government should stand in forthcoming presidential elections in Gabon, civil society groups in the country have said.
Reports say the organisations are particularly concerned the son of the late President Bongo, Ali Bongo, will take over.
Mr Bongo, who ruled Gabon for more than four decades, died after a long illness in a Spanish hospital last week.
Elections are due to be held in the West African nation within 45 days.
Interim President Rose Francine Rogombe has been sworn in as the nation's first female leader - she is constitutionally ineligible to stand for election. (ANA)
