The Republic of Guinea is mourning the death of the former First Lady of the Republic – Hadja Djènè Kaba.

She passed away on Saturday following an undisclosed illness in France where she had been leaving since the September 5, 2021 coup that ousted her husband – President Alpha Conde

On Sunday family relatives, friends, former ministers, activists and supporters of the former ruling RPG arc-en-ciel gathered at her residence in Conakry to express their condolences.

Late Djènè Kaba was described by many as a humble and generous woman who devoted her life to women’s empowerment as well as the vulnerable.
