Alpha Condé

Guinean politician (born 1938) from Boké, an academic who spent decades in opposition to Guinea's successive regimes, ran against President Lansana Conté in 1993 and 1998 and was imprisoned and tried, then was elected president in 2010 as the first freely elected president in Guinea's history (2010–2021); he was re-elected in 2015 and, after a constitutional reset of his term limits, in 2020, until the coup of 5 September 2021 led by Mamady Doumbouya overthrew him.
