Can Guinea’s military be persuaded to hand over power?

“None of the politicians are close to decision making today”.When Guinea’s army toppled the sitting – and unpopular – president Alpha Conde in September last year, people celebrated in the streets. Even opposition politicians expressed a cautious welcome – and supported a transition to civilian rule of over a year or more. But now, eight months on, the army has said it needs 36 months before it hands over power. It’s also banned all political protest and clamped down on opponents.So what can the opposition do? A group of 58 political parties have formed a coalition with one aim – speeding up the return to democracy. Africa Daily speaks to Thierno Yaya Diallo of the party Guinea Modern – part of the coalition.Presenter: Alan Kasujja (@kasujja) Guests: Thierno Yaya Diallo and Alhassan Silla
