The former president of Guinea's National Independent Electoral Commission (CENI), Lounseny Camara, has been named as the West African country's tourism minister.
The nomination was made in a presidential decree on Thursday as a partial cabinet reshuffle initiated by President Alpha Conde about a month ago.

With his CENI leadership contested by opposition parties, Camara resigned from the leadership of the electoral body in September to end the political impasse blocking the long-delayed legislative elections.

Camara's departure facilitated the process to set up a new CENI under state law.
