Riots erupt in Gabon capital over disputed election
LIBREVILLE, Sept 1 (Reuters) - Riots erupted in at least nine suburbs of Gabon's capital Libreville on Thursday in protest against a disputed election win by President Ali Bongo, two witnesses and a police source said.
Supporters of Bongo's main rival for the presidency suspect Saturday's election, which brought Bongo back to power on a narrow margin, was rigged. (Reporting by Gerauds Wilfried Obangome; Writing by Tim Cocks; Editing by Louise Ireland)
