Vice President Kashim Shettima was among dignitaries that witnessed the inauguration of President Mamadi Doumbouya as the President of Guinea Conakry.


The inauguration of President Doumbouya followed his victory in the December 2025 general election in the country, a democratic watershed which brought the formal end of a four-year military transition. 


Vice President Shettima’s presence at the event has again underscored Nigeria’s leadership role within ECOWAS and reaffirmed the country’s commitment to the restoration and sustenance of democratic governance across the sub-region.

The revised constitution extended the presidential tenure from five to seven years, renewable only once.
