The diplomatic community comprising designated ambassadors to Guinea, are protesting against the internet cut and restrictions on social networking.

Other concerns raised include the jamming of the frequencies of some of the country’s private media.

However, the head of Guinean diplomacy Dr Morrisanda Kouyate, who officially received their complaints, informed the diplomats of the reason behind the restriction.
