France, June 1 -- Five months after the presidential election held on 28 December 2025, nearly 7 million Guinean voters went to the polls on Sunday for legislative and municipal elections presented as the completion of the process of returning the country to constitutional order.

This comes after a transition period triggered by the coup led by General Mamadi Doumbouya in September 2021 in the former French colony.

This double election will determine the 147 members of the country's future National Assembly as well as the municipal councillors for Guinea's 375 local authorities.

It took place peacefully, without major incident, according to RFI's correspondent in Conakry, Tangi Bihan.
