The National Woodcutters Rally (French: Rassemblement National des Bûcherons) is a political party in Gabon. It is founded in 1991 and led by Fr. Paul M'ba Abessole. The party is technically divided into two factions. A split occurred in 1998 when Pierre Kombila founded the National Woodcutters' Rally - Democratic (Rassemblement national des Bûcherons - Démocratique). The main faction (National Woodcutters' Rally - Rally for Gabon, Rassemblement national des Bûcherons - Rassemblement pour le Gabon, led by M'ba Abessole) has performed much better in elections than the RNB-D, and is considered the main party. At the legislative elections, 9 December 2001, the party won 8 out of 120 seats. In the 17 December/24 December 2006 National Assembly of Gabon election the party won 8 out of 120 seats.
