Jean Eyeghe Ndong

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jean Eyeghe Ndong (born February 12, 1946) has been the Prime Minister of Gabon since 20 January 2006. He is a member of the Gabonese Democratic Party (PDG).[1] He succeeded Jean-François Ntoutoume Emane as prime minister one day after President Omar Bongo was sworn in for another term. Eyeghe had previously been a deputy finance minister in charge of privatization in Ntoutoume's government.[1][2] He is a nephew of former president Léon M'ba.[1]

Eyeghe ran for a seat in parliament in the 2001 election but was defeated by Paul M'ba Abessole.[1] The two faced each other again in the December 2006 parliamentary election, this time with Eyeghe holding the position of prime minister and M'ba Abessole being a deputy prime minister, and Eyeghe was victorious.[3] Eyeghe submitted the resignation of his government to Bongo on January 19, 2007; it is constitutionally required that the government resign after the results of parliamentary elections are announced by the Constitutional Court.[4] On January 24, Bongo asked Eyeghe to form a new government, and Eyeghe accepted;[5] the composition of the new government was announced on January 25, with few changes.[6]
