Welcome to the Home of the Campaign Against Human Rights Violations and Genocide in Guinea, directed by Pottal Fii Bhantal Fouta Djallon.

 

The Campaign will bring light to the events and human rights abuses that have occurred in the Republic of Guinea, the discrimination and abuses that the current regime is perpetrating against the Fulani people, and the likely future abuses and potential for a tragic genocide. To date, the Fulani have endured rape, murder, and imprisonment including but not limited to the atrocities and crimes of the Sept 28, 2009 massacre. They have been subjected to ethnically motivated violence and abuse at the hands of the Guinean security forces. The Fulani were even prevented from voting in some areas of the country during the recent November 2010 presidential run-off election, the so-called "first free election" in Guinean history, after attacks in those regions caused many Fulani to flee.

 

the message is clear: unless the status quo changes, in the future there will be more discrimination and human rights violations, and there is a strong possibility a Rwanda-like genocide will occur.
