In an exclusive interview with FRANCE 24, the head of Guinea’s Elite Army Unit on Sunday confirmed the country’s president Alpha Condé was being held by his forces. “The president is with us, he’s in a safe place,†said Lieutenant-Colonel Mamady Doumbouya.
I’m Doumbouya and I’m forming CNRD which will steer the country through a Transition. I have dissolved the Parliament and Government. I’m ordering the suspension of the Constitution and ordered the closure of the land, border and air space.
My motive for the takeover is because of Rampant corruption, mismanagement and the hardship seen in the country.
Guinea’s military special forces on Sunday staged a coup, announcing it had arrested the country’s president, dissolved the government and would rewrite the constitution.
In the exclusive interview with FRANCE 24’s correspondent Malick Diakité, Doumbouya said: “The whole army is here, from Nzérékoré to Conakry, to help build this country.â€
He also confirmed that the president was being held by his men. “The president is with us, he is in a safe place. He has seen a doctor and there is no problem.
