Five months after a military coup in Guinea, a transitional parliament has been formed today. The so-called National Transitional Council (CNT) comprises 81 members. General Mamady Doumbouya was already sworn in as president last year, after deposing the previous president in a military coup. Doumbouya vowed during the ceremony at the Supreme Court that he and other members of the military would not participate in future elections. He said the new leadership plans to draft a new constitution, reform the electoral system, fight corruption and launch free and transparent elections.
