Gabu is the seat of both its namesake sector, and of its namesake
region. I could not find any data about its current flag use.

Gabu was officially known as Nova Lamego until 1975 (cf.
Lamego) and was granted a Portuguese-style
municipal coat of arms and flag in the 1960s. These can be seen, scanned
from [lgh66], at
HotW
and in the
Wikimedia
Commons. In the later location, uploader Emerson states that this flag
«may be still in use». Based on what I know of Portuguese former
colonies’ municipal flags, I’d say that is highly unlikely.

arms on the center. This was Gules a sword Argent hilted Or upright
