Guinea’s opposition leader and presidential candidate Cellou Dalein Diallo has held his final rally ahead of Sunday’s election, denouncing President Alpha Conde’s decision to run for a third term in office, calling it unconstitutional.
Opponents now believe that Conde, 82, will use the new constitution to restart the clock on his term limits, potentially giving him another decade in power.
