General Horta Inta-A has taken over as Transitional President of Guinea-Bissau after the High Military Command for the Restoration of National Security and Public Order seized control of the country.
The military takeover comes in the wake of yesterday’s tense events, which plunged the nation into uncertainty and triggered a swift power shift.
General Horta Inta-A is expected to lead the transition as the military announces moves to “restore national stability and public order.”
Further details are still emerging.
