Leadership of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has decided “suspend Guinea from all ECOWAS governing bodies with immediate effect”.

This was contained in a communique issued after an emergency ECOWAS meeting was held online on Wednesday, September 8, 2021, chaired by President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.

ECOWAS also demanded for the “respect for the physical safety of the President of the Republic and Head of State, H.E. Alpha Conde, and his immediate and unconditional release, as well as that of all arrested persons”.

ECOWAS is also “to immediately dispatch a high-level ECOWAS mission to Guinea to assess the situation”.

The move comes after Guinean special forces led by Lieutenant Colonel Mamady Doumbouya seized power on Sunday, September 5, and arrested president Alpha Conde.
