Guinea confirms Doumbouya as president for seven-year term
Doumbouya’s election follows a new constitution approved in a September referendum, which extended presidential terms from five to seven years and allowed military leaders to run for office.
In a broadcast after the ruling, Doumbouya declared: “Today, there are neither winners nor losers. There is only one Guinea, united and indivisible,” urging citizens to work toward “a new Guinea, a Guinea of peace, justice, shared prosperity, and fully assumed political and economic sovereignty.”
This vote marks Guinea’s first presidential election since Doumbouya led a military coup in September 2021 that removed former President Alpha Conde from power.
