AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Opposition: Guinea’s Aliou Bah, leader of the Liberal Democratic Movement, was freed by a presidential pardon after nearly two years in prison for remarks criticizing the ruling junta. He was among 217 prisoners pardoned by Mamadi Doumbouya for Independence Day, amid wider concerns over restrictions on dissent. Simandou and India: Guinea’s ambassador to India says the Simandou 2040 agenda could deepen ties across mining, infrastructure, energy and other sectors. He says Conakry wants investment to bring skills, local processing and jobs—not just capital. Economic Outlook: The IMF projects Guinea’s economy will grow 8.7% in 2026, placing it among Africa’s fastest-growing economies.
