Mamady Doumbouya Wins Presidency in Guinea, Ending Military Rule

By Marie

Guinea’s coup leader Mamady Doumbouya has been elected president, according to provisional results announced Tuesday. His victory marks the completion of the country’s return to civilian rule after years of political upheaval.

Doumbouya, a former special forces commander, seized power in 2021 by ousting longtime president Alpha Conde, who had governed since 2010. His rise was part of a wave of nine coups that have reshaped politics across West and Central Africa since 2020. Also Read: Ukraine Suspends Justice Minister Amid $100M Energy Corruption Scandal
