Green represents coolness and prosperity, yellow represents welfare of the people, and blue represents loyalty. The flag is similar to the flag of Gabon.[2] The flag is often found wrapped around trees instead of flying on a flagpole.[3] Although in recent years, the use of the flag has become more widespread among the city government and certain localities.
