CONAKRY: Guinea’s junta has suspended three main political parties — including that of former president Alpha Conde — for three months, ahead of an electoral campaign for a rewrite of the constitution, according to an order seen by AFP on Saturday.
The move came as the main parties and civil society groups in the west African nation readied to hold demonstrations from September 5 to condemn what they see as a power grab by the head of the junta, General Mamadi Doumbouya.
A referendum on revising the constitution is to be held on September 21.
