I remember hearing this is the same guy who changed the constitution to allow himself to run for a third term. Had to look it up to be sure but it seems that was correct.

“Condé won a third term in October 2020 presidential election, with 59.5% of the vote. Condé stated that a March 2020 constitutional referendum allowed him to run despite a two-term limit. The opposition rejected the results because of allegations of fraud, and violent protests erupted across the country.”

From Wikipedia.

Edit: also, interestingly enough, it seems Wikipedia has already changed the entry of Guineas president to the military leader in charge of the coup. They didn’t miss a beat.
