2020 Guinean legislative election Sunday March March 01,2020

Voters in Guinea will take to the polls on Sunday March 01,2020 to decide whether to adopt a new constitution and choose their members of parliament

Some 7.7 million are registered to vote in the polls, according to Guinea's Independent National Electoral Commission (CENI)

But the opposition - and the very few international observers - distrust the electoral roll.
This week, the International Organisation of La Francophonie (OIF) said it had problems identifying 2.49 million people on the electoral roll, pointing to duplicate names and people who had died

Polls open at 7am (07:00 GMT) and close at 6pm (18:00 GMT) on Sunday, according to CENI President Amadou Salif Kebe.

The constitutional referendum is deeply controversial, with critics calling it a plot that would allow President Alpha Conde to seek another term

For the 81-year-old, who became Guinea's first democratically elected leader in 2010, the changes will create a "modern constitution" that will respond "to the needs of the world today"
