Movement for National Rectification–Unionist explained

The Movement for National Rectification–Unionist (French: Mouvement de Redressement National–Unioniste, MORENA–Unionist) is a political party in Gabon.

History

The party was established in 1992 by the MP Adrien Nguemah Ondo as a breakaway from the Movement for National Rectification.[1] Nguemah Ondo ran in the 1993 presidential elections, receiving just 0.4% of the vote. It lost its seat in the 1996 parliamentary elections.
