In Guinea-Bissau 🇬🇼, both little-known opposition candidate Fernando Dias, 47, and the incumbent president Umaro Sissoco Embalo have declared themselves winners of Sunday’s presidential election, before release of official results Thursday. “We have won the presidential race. We will not have a second round,” Dias told supporters in the capital, Bissau, adding that people were “tired” and wanted change. Dias is backed by the influential former Prime Minister Domingos Simoes Pereira, the runner-up in the 2019 presidential election. Pereira, along with the main opposition party he leads, the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde, was barred from Sunday's election. Shortly after Dias's announcement, Embalo and his campaign also claimed winning outright, and urging the opposition to accept the results. The winner needs more than 50 percent of the votes, or the election will head to a runoff. Embalo, 53, is a former army general who served as prime minister from 2016 to 2018. He is seeking to become Guinea-Bissau’s first president in 30 years to win a second term. Embalo’s mandate should have ended earlier this year. The Supreme Court ruled that his term should run until early September, but the election was pushed back to November. He dissolved parliament, which was controlled by the opposition after the 2019 and 2023 legislative elections, and has not allowed it to sit since December 2023 following the attempted coup. The main opposition party won the legislative election in 2023 and in 2019. Source: The Associated Press.

What happened in Guinea Bissau wasn't a coup. The President (Umaro Embalo) was the one who announced the coup. While the coup took place, the president was the one calling media organisations to say there was a coup. I'm a Nigerian, and I know how heads of states are treated when there's a coup. - Former President Jonathan

BREAKING 🚨: Coup in Guinea Bissau A coup attempt is reportedly underway in Guinea-Bissau after soldiers detained President Umaro Sissoco Embaló at the presidential palace, where armed units surrounded the compound and gunshots rang out across the capital. The military leadership has announced a suspension of the electoral process and claimed full control of the country, deepening tensions already heightened by a disputed election in which both Embaló and opposition candidate Fernando Dias declared victory. The crisis follows months of political strain, including the Supreme Court’s controversial decision to bar major opposition figure Domingos Simões Pereira from running, adding to concerns about electoral manipulation and instability.
