Guinean opposition leader Cellou Dalein Diallo on Thursday said protests would resume next week over disputed local elections in February as he called off negotiations with the government. Demonstrations over the results of that vote have claimed at least 15 lives.
The opposition was in talks with the government but Diallo, who met President Alpha Conde in on April 2, accused the authorities of dragging their feet.
He announced a new strike on Monday in the capital Conakry, adding: “We are suspending dialogue… because we have noticed a lack of will on the part of our adversaries to find consensus on the electoral differences.”
