Africa's longest ruler finally retires

RIP President Omar Bongo of Gabon…yes, I know what you’re thinkin: “Where the fuck is Gabon?” I swear Africa gets a new country every 5 years. The oldest continent knows how to stay fresh and new, doesn’t it? Anyways, President Bongo was Africa’s longest-serving ruler (ruled since 1967) died at 73 from a battle with intestinal cancer. He was in Spain receiving treatment when he died.
