Guinean People's Rally
The Rally of the Guinean People (french: Rassemblement du Peuple Guinéen, sometimes translated as ''Guinean People's Assembly''; RPG) is a political party in Guinea. The RPG was the ruling party in the country from 2010 to 2021 and was recently led by Alpha Condé. It is mainly based amongst the Mandinka population. The party boycotted the parliamentary election held on 30 June 2002. Following the dismissal of Lansana Kouyaté as Prime Minister and his replacement by Ahmed Tidiane Souaré on 20 May 2008, the RPG denounced Kouyaté's dismissal and, unlike other opposition parties, declined to attend a meeting with Souaré on 28 May to discuss the formation of a national unity government. According to the RPG, positive change would not come as long as President Lansana Conté remained in power, regardless of who was Prime Minister or who was included in the government, and the party said that it would not participate in the government. The party is affiliated to the Progressive ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Alpha Condé
Alpha Condé (N'Ko: ; born 4 March 1938) is a Guinean politician who served as the fourth president of Guinea from 2010 to 2021.

He was reelected in 2015 with about 58% of the vote, and again in 2020 with 59.5% after a constitutional referendum which allowed Condé to "reset" his term limit and seek two more terms.

2013 Guinean Legislative Election
Legislative elections were held in Guinea on 28 September 2013 after numerous delays and postponements. President Alpha Condé's party, the Rally of the Guinean People (RPG) emerged as the largest party in the National Assembly with 53 of the 114 seats. Parties allied with the RDG won seven seats and opposition parties won the remaining 53 seats. Opposition leaders denounced the official results as fraudulent. Date The election was originally planned to be held in June 2007, but was postponed to December 2007 due to a general strike in January and February, which resulted in the appointment of a new government and Prime Minister. It was, however, subsequently considered likely that the election would be postponed another time to around March 2008 due to delays in setting up the Independent National Electoral Commission (CENI) and the need for revision of electoral lists. A date for the election in November or December 2008 has been proposed.http://www.afriquenligne.fr/actualites/ ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
