Gabon police arrest 200 people in post-election chaos as looting continues

‘Police in Gabon’s capital, Libreville, have arrested more than 200 suspected looters as post-election tensions cause disruptions in the West African country.
“We have arrested more than 200 looters since last night,” national police chief Jean-Thierry Oye Zue said on Thursday, adding, “Looting is currently continuing in the poorer districts.”
Chaos hit the country shortly after election officials declared on Wednesday that incumbent President Ali Bongo (yes, I know …) had won the presidential race.’
