Ali Bongo declared Gabon president
The president of Gabon's constitutional court is declaring the son of late dictator Omar Bongo the winner of last weekend's disputed presidential election.
Marie Madeleine Mborantsuo, the head of the court, confirmed that Ali Bongo had won the election with 41.7% of the vote.
The announcement ends the opposition's last chance for legal redress.
Opposition leaders, including Pierre Mamboundou, claim the election was marred by massive fraud.
The head of Mamboundou's political party, Louis-Gaston Mayila, says the opposition is considering forming a "parallel government."
Hours before the announcement, protesters angry at Bongo's victory set a police station on fire.
