AGP Executive Report

Last update: 22 minutes ago

Election Delay: Guinea-Bissau’s December 6 presidential and parliamentary elections are set to be postponed, with no new date announced. Prime Minister Ilídio Vieira Té cited missed candidate-filing deadlines and party leadership requirements; the electoral commission also says the timetable is no longer workable. ECOWAS is urging the military authorities to consult political and civil society groups on a transparent new schedule. The vote was meant to restore civilian rule after the November 2025 coup, and former president Umaro Sissoco Embaló has been barred from returning. Newborn Vaccine Trial: A Danish university has approved a controversial study in Guinea-Bissau involving 14,000 newborns, with half not receiving the hepatitis B birth-dose vaccine for six weeks. Critics say withholding a proven vaccine poses serious ethical and health risks; the trial had previously been suspended after an outcry.
