12:07 pm
no other choice, but to pay the bill. of course, come all, one of the big issues, you know, this is one of the big issues. there was so many issues the buckets of dealing with right now. there's also an interim government, which leads us to believe that there will be a general election at the end of the is this going to be one of the hot topics of debates on all of the chart shows that, you know, up on pakistan, national television when edwin different natalie get a dime however, it should be understood that the outgoing government that ended over fall dirty and tell them government failed miserably on the economic front. and so as far as they are concerned, they can not come out to the people and say, we're going to do something because the people are blaming them. football gets guns, economic match. however, the good part did that could take advantage of this. and the drama that saw me, they have stayed new credit. they have not digging any size. i know,
12:08 pm
i'm sure you have him wrong cons party, but unfortunately he had been put in jail as party. well, good that all the shortest it that had one of the largest parties in the country. and of course there are no question marks as to whether the elections will be added on time under the constitution or dig 90 days to or the general election. but the government is also coming up with executed, saying that that may not be possible. go ahead. thanks very much. 1212. how did that all correspondents bucks that will be of course, following 12. and what happens at 3 today and focused on here on to 0 to the goals . qu, leaders says that he was rushed to hold elections despite mounting pressure to attend the country to civilian rule. bryce of william, grandma says that the winter wants to move quickly, but avoid repeating those pests mistakes. he'll say, promise to it has democratic institutions as a bundled economy pulse less than 3 days after on knowing elections and come on and
12:09 pm
dissolving state institution is military coup. leaders have voiced a clear vision for the country's future on defense, which is the dissolution of the institutions of the republic is temporary, the english to reorganize them, to make them more democratic, more in line with international standards in terms of respects for human rights, fundamental freedoms democracy and the rule of law, but also in the fight against corruption which has become commonplace in our country, money laundering, and above all, the preservation of the environment, which is a battle deal to our country. earlier. good bonds, main opposition? candidates, alber onto olsa was claimed to victory for good bonds. election spoke. he's demanding an electoral recount and says, the crew is no revolution. so rather a family affair. the things that we need to put things into context. first of all, it's not a clue detox. it's a police revolution. when, when, when mike is on the bunk, whose cousin, the govern use, took to the streets to welcome bone goes departure. but as i said,
12:10 pm
they sold that it wasn't the bungles who had left bumble, who had replaced another bundle bundle qu, leaders took action on wednesday, detaining president, ali bongo who has been in power since 2009 after he was announce the winner by the electoral authority, the accused bongo and his family of high treason stealing billions and state finances when it comes to natural resources. mainly the countries rich oil production opposition members say, regardless of the military's vision, they must respect the rule of law, the democracy, and the movie to re us to be respondent and respect the constitution. therefore, we asking them and over the power, because the constitution does not allow the military to lead the nation to bonds, military leaders look to usher in a new start for a country that has been run by a family dynasty for over 5 decades. but it's unclear if the people of that bond
12:11 pm
will be trusting in that vision as the country remains on edge and ronald lafond l just here. while the close, i chose the live from send. the goal is capital dot com. so nick, the military is hate to stay, perhaps the hubs, they left the door open, perhaps a little just to discuss future less election prospects as well. that's where the opposition hopes, but in the words of a bell on the outside was the main opposition candidate for him. this is not a crew, it's less a qu, but more a family affair, found least tussle for power, alluding to, for us getting a bone go with sideline when omar bone go with the father, died in 2009 and where ali bone go had stepped in so she sees at the current who more of a continuation of the same rather than a break from the past. but of course, the,
12:12 pm
his political party called i've done that team 23 have distanced himself a little bit from his comment saying that their engage in dialogue with the military june to. but what's interesting to note is that on monday, because these are the in grandma will be sworn in by the constitutional court, but not on the constitution, but rather on a charter of transition. a charter of transition in which the content is not known . and we don't know how long those staying to power and in effect, what will they will be doing, what's their plan of action. so there's a lot of uncertainty linked to that. and we've seen a reaction to a key player forensic former colonial power that has vested interests and get boned, but also has a french military bases on the ground. that's the head of the army, said that it has severed temporarily military cooperation with good bond army. so of course, nick, the opposition a demand take a full account of the vote, but as you've been reporting it was racked with fraud. so where does this sort of leave? the oppositions depends full perhaps the resolution to that general election.
12:13 pm
i mean, this is the key issue not just didn't get bogged but in other countries of the region. elections. how are they? how are they legitimate? how are they viable for many people of the of the, in the opposition in civil society is the way that elections are conducted in western central african states are just not credible. and the elections that we saw don't saw on saturday. we saw a lot of about valid bucks being stuffed with results that, that, that, that tipped the balance towards audi bunco. so the, the opposition want those election will results to be recounted. but in effect, the selection took place with no international observers with no independent journalist. so there's very little credence or legitimacy to those elections that what's interesting is we saw police or the in game i, yesterday, a dress religious leader. and it was the 1st step that he says he was going to take
12:14 pm
is not to address the issue is with this election, but to address the issue with the economic state of the country. a country that's rich in oral exporting $6000000000.00 worth of or last year. and yet half of the population lives on less than $2.00 a day. and during bongo is a term in office at the situation, it has gone from bad to worse. i interviewed him in 2017 when he was re elected. he told me the 1st thing that he was going to address is unemployment to try to get young companies back to work. but during his time in office, 40 percent of young deputies are out of work in a country that is overflowing with wealth. so for that update thing, so, but the cut course, the inductor, a vice president, is accusing the tries military coup leaders of holding present, having both same hostage policy has been detained in the presidential palace. since

12:26 pm
a window allowed the writers to get access to the capital. as the members of congress were city to unlock chambers, that was dominic because although now he's been sentenced to 10 years, prosecutors had asked for 20. the other one is ethan nor did. when the leader of the fraud boys was basically kicked out of town, he took over. according to the prosecutors, he was named the head of the boots on the ground. so what did he do on that day? well, even before form president donald trump started speaking, used bullhorn, started yelling for people to follow him to the capital. they said about 200 people did. and if you remember the video of the 1st line of defense, the police with those bicycle racks, he was the one who picked them up at roosevelt police officers and allowed all of those hundreds of writers to get close to the capital. he was sentenced to 18 years in prison because he was also convicted of seditious conspiracy. prosecutors had one and 27. it was an interesting scene, though, when to zillow was being sentenced. he cried as his daughter told the judge to ask
