Career
Gabnia was elected as Chairman of Aruaa during its congress on 30 July 2013, succeeding acting Chairman Daur Achugba and following the resignation of previous Chairman Vadim Smyr.
On 22 August 2018, Gabnia announced his resignation as vice-president, citing the need to "defend his honor" after being caught in a brawl and being hit in his head. He added the offender was not brought to justice due to the existing "system of lawlessness", but his resignation was not connected to "political realities".
