The military junta in Guinea has dissolved the interim government and sealed all borders.
Amara Camara, the presidency’s secretary general, read the decree on Monday on national TV.
Camara said directors of cabinet, secretary generals, and their deputies, will be in charge until a new government is formed.
The officer did not specify when a new cabinet would be formed or why the dissolution was made.
In a separate communiqué, Ibrahima Bangoura, chief of staff of the armed forces, said the dissolved government officials were mandated to return their vehicles and passports as soon as possible.
Bangoura added that their bodyguards had to end their service. The officials’ bank accounts were also frozen.
The military took over power in a coup in September 2021 after Alpha Conde, the country’s first democratically elected president, was deposed.
The Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) kicked against the military takeover and suspended Guinea from the bloc.
Bowing to international pressure, Mamady Doumbouya, junta leader, agreed to a 24-month transition period set by the military and ECOWAS.
The transition period is expected to elapse in December
