Mystère autour la chute d’Embaló en Guinée-Bissau

Les doutes continuent de s’amplifier autour des événements ayant mené à la destitution du président bissau-guinéen Umaro Sissoco Embaló, renversé cette semaine dans des conditions encore floues. À Abuja, l’ancien président nigérian Goodluck Jonathan, présent en tant qu’observateur pour le Forum des Anciens d’Afrique de l’Ouest, a exprimé de sérieux questionnements. Selon lui, ce qui s’est passé « ne ressemble pas à un coup d’État classique » mais plutôt à un « coup d’État cérémoniel ». Il s’est notamment étonné du fait que ce soit Embaló lui-même qui ait annoncé sa propre chute, un scénario inédit dans une région habituée aux ruptures de pouvoir brutales. Jonathan a déclaré avoir été exfiltré de Bissau avant l’annonce faite par l’armée. Au Sénégal, le Premier ministre Ousmane Sonko a partagé les mêmes réserves.

Why Goodluck Jonathan Stepped Back From Politics

Former President Goodluck Jonathan explained that his membership in the West African Elders Forum (WAEF) requires strict non-partisanship, which has kept him out of active politics.

Jonathan Fully Eligible for 2027 Presidency – Cousin

Former President Goodluck Jonathan is legally and constitutionally qualified to contest the 2027 presidential election, his cousin Azibaola Robert has said. Azibaola, a lawyer and former pro-democracy activist, made the statement in response to recent comments by senior legal figures, including Minister of Aviation Festus Keyamo (SAN) and human rights lawyer Professor Chidi Odinkalu, who questioned Jonathan’s eligibility. Writing on his Facebook page, Azibaola stressed that there is no legal barrier to Jonathan’s candidacy. “GEJ is 100% constitutionally and legally qualified to contest if he chooses to. If he decides not to yield to the overwhelming calls to contest, it would not be because he is not qualified,” he wrote. He added that Jonathan, a former president and experienced leader, has access to a team of legal advisers and does not require public reminders about his rights under Nigerian law. […]
