Idriss Ngari
Idriss Ngari (born 2 April 1946〔David E. Gardinier and Douglas A. Yates, ''Historical Dictionary of Gabon'' (third edition, 2006), pages 237–238.〕〔(''Jeune Afrique L'intelligent'', Issues 2189–2197 ) (2003), page 69 .〕) is a Gabonese politician and army general. A relative of President Omar Bongo, Ngari rose rapidly through the ranks of the army, ultimately serving as Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces from 1984 to 1994. He then held a succession of posts in the government of Gabon, serving as Minister of Defense from 1994 to 1999, Minister of Transport from 1999 to 2002, Minister of the Interior from 2002 to 2004, Minister of Public Works from 2004 to 2007, Minister of Tourism from 2007 to 2009, and finally as Minister of Health in 2009. Considered one of Gabon's most powerful figures during Omar Bongo's rule, Ngari is a member of the Gabonese Democratic Party (PDG).
==Military career==
An ethnic Téké,〔 Ngari was born in Ngouoni, located in the Haut-Ogooué Province of eastern Gabon, in 1946.〔〔〔("Gabon : Pour l’élection présidentielle de 2012, Idriss Ngari peut mettre tout le monde d’accord" ), Infos Plus Gabon, 24 May 2009 .〕 Omar Bongo, who was also a native of Haut-Ogooué, was a maternal uncle of Ngari.〔〔Andreas Mehler, Henning Melber, and Klaas Van Walraven, (''Africa Yearbook: Politics, Economy and Society South of the Sahara'' ) (2004), page 236.〕 Ngari joined the army in 1968 and trained to become an officer, studying in Côte d'Ivoire at the officers' school in Bouaké, as well as at Montpellier in France. Back in Gabon, he rose quickly to very high rank: he was ''aide-de-camp'' to the Military Cabinet of President Omar Bongo from 1977〔〔 to 1978, Chief of Staff of Ground and Naval Forces from 1978 to 1983, and then Chief of Staff of the Armies from 1983 to 1984.〔
Ngari was appointed as Chief of Staff of the Armed Forces in 1984 and remained in that post for ten years.〔 As Chief of Staff, he ordered commandos from the Presidential Guard to destroy Radio Liberté, an opposition radio station, on 22 February 1994; the destruction of the station led to several weeks of unrest.〔("Gabon Human Rights Practices, 1994" ), United States Department of State, February 1995.〕 According to Ngari, the station was inciting violence and hatred and it had to be shut down for the good of the country.〔(''Africa Research Bulletin'' ) (1994), Blackwell, page 11,241.〕
Soon after the destruction of Radio Liberté, President Bongo appointed Ngari to the government as Minister of Defense, Security, and Immigration in March 1994.〔〔"Ngari Idriss", ''Gabon: Les Hommes de Pouvoir N°4'', (Africa Intelligence ), 5 March 2002 .〕 Given its sensitive status, Bongo was always careful to maintain reliable control over the Defense Ministry; for years he had personally managed the defense portfolio, and beginning in 1981 he entrusted it to family members. Ngari's appointment marked a continuation of that practice.〔Gardinier and Yates, ''Historical Dictionary of Gabon'', page 80.〕
