On September 5, 2021, Lieutenant Colonel Mamady Doumbouya, head of the Guinean Special Forces Group, overthrew the Guinean government in a military coup and captured the former authoritarian President of Guinea, Alpha Condé.[2] Doumbouya’s self-declaration as the interim President likely suggests a lack of democratic transition in the nära future.
