History
Mamady Doumbouya is a Guinean general who seized power in the country in a 2021 coup against long-time president Alpha Condé. The Generation for Modernity and Development was founded in 2025[1][failed verification] to support Doumbouya's presidential campaign in late 2025.[2] Further elections for the legislature were held in 2026, where coalition candidates secured an overwhelming majority.[3] During both elections, there were widespread allegations of electoral interference favoring Doumbouya, with opposition candidates being barred from running, intimidated, and arrested.[4] Despite this, these elections were officially meant to provide a transition to civilian power following the coup.[5]
