Guinea-Bissau’s ousted President Umaro Sissoco Embalo arrived in the Republic of Congo’s capital Brazzaville on Saturday, November 29, days after the military seized power, Reuters News Agency reported.
Soldiers toppled Embalo’s government on Wednesday before the results of weekend presidential and legislative elections could be announced, continuing a pattern of political instability in the small Portuguese-speaking state.
Embalo had initially left Bissau for neighbouring Senegal on a special flight, as military officers installed Major-General Horta Inta-a as transitional president on Thursday.
The source, who asked not to be named, confirmed that Embalo was in Brazzaville without giving further details. AFP had reported the news earlier, citing Congolese government sources.
