Gabon’s communications regulator suspended broadcasting by TV+, the television station owned by opposition leader Andre Mba Obame who declared himself president two days ago.

“The National Communication Council has decided to suspend the broadcasting license of TV+ for three months,” Godel Inanga, an adviser to the body, said in a statement read on state television late yesterday in the capital, Libreville. The suspension is effective from Jan. 26, he said.
