🇬🇳 Guinea Opposition Leader Urges Direct Resistance After 40 Political Parties Dissolved

Guinea’s main opposition figure, Cellou Dalein Diallo, called for direct resistance after President Mamadi Doumbouya dissolved 40 political parties, accusing the junta-leader-turned-president of attempting to build a one-party state and erase political opposition. Diallo made the remarks following the government’s formal dissolution order.

Doumbouya, who led the 2021 military coup that ousted President Alpha Condé, has steadily consolidated power, with critics warning that the dissolution of parties represents a further erosion of democratic space in the country.
