Hello im christine one day its good to have your Company President ial elections in guinea all set for this coming sunday incumbent president alpha conde is going for a 3rd term the 82 year old became the countrys 1st democratically elected leader in 2010 bringing hopes of progress soft ideas of dictatorship and industry rule he says he needs more time to finish big projects guineas constitution has a 2 term limit for president s but in the march referendum voters approved changes to the constitution that conde argues reset the clock on his presidency the opposition say its illegal for conde to run they also accuse him of using deadly force to crackdown on dissent. Taking it to the street the opposition says president out of a calm day has been in power too long and shouldnt even be running the last year the clashes erupted one conde said he planned to run for a 3rd term dozens died in a government crackdown. But a referendum boycotted by the opposition approved an amended constitution earlier this year that created the Legal Framework for him to run again. Conde is guineas 1st democratically elected president and a former dissident himself he claims its the opposition who represent oppressive policies. His rival salute the yellow rose to Prime Minister under the previous authoritarian government the 2 are backed by different ethnic groups and the ilo has accused the incumbent of exploiting ethnic tensions but conde says his Political Party is for everyone hes just a man of the people and denies he uses his authority against his opponents. We are proud of our independence and sovereignty and i do what the people of guinea want. I told my activists i dont want violence i dont want you throwing stones insulting people dont block the roads. Opposition leader diallo says thats just what happened he claims barriers were set up to block him and his supporters. Unfortunately they decided that i should not go strutting around in his strongholds and so all arrangements were made to her event me from accessing it is a great city. In the run up to the election the United Nations said it was alarmed at ethnically charged hate speech spreading across the country its feared that could lead to further violence. We go over to london fred when hes in our west Africa Bureau in lagos hi fred good to see you so awful conde once a nother term in office and theres been much opposition to that but just had a small about his 10 years in office. In the last 10 year prison. Says he claims that he has changed things he has changed the economy of the country which he says that hes pretty son actually messed up with everything and then now he says that for the last 10 years he has done incredible job in terms of economy and he has the kountry so. But then there were position on the other side the opposition says that this guy wants to stay in power something they dont want to see repeating itself tell us more about the opposition candidate what how much support does he have among the nails. He has i can say that he has significant support because this is a guy who has been hes a former Prime Minister he has a q prior to several ministerial posts during the not going to rule so hes an experienced politician but also he he has a massive support from the old regime for the people who are against the incumbent president there or. Expect each and every one actor to be behind him because they know him that he can do but also he has also another challenge there are people who see who see him as someone who challenged corruption because anything that happened during the rule of us on our country is action to this opposition politician ok afraid as we heard in our report. President conde and mrs yellow they are backed by rival ethnic groups how is this likely going to play into the election. I mean this its a big challenge now in guinea because. Theyre held from my ethnic group and then. Theres also the. Opposition figure. Comes from a part of.

That if anything goes wrong if they rule any side if they lose they are afraid that actually there might erupt Serious Violence in the county but the u. N. And International Organizations have already made statement calling on the candidates to be cautious on how they make statements so that they cannot fuel any virus so far they have been a couple of people dozens of people have been killed but then they have to be cautious in the way they are talking to their supporters ok fred so is it is it all systems go for for for sundays election and given were also in the midst of a pandemic. I mean in this part of the region i mean when you look at the campaigns people. Come painting.
