Mohamed Said Fofana, born on January first, nineteen fifty-two, is a distinguished economist and politician from Guinea. His career in public service reached a significant milestone when he was appointed Prime Minister by President Alpha Condé on December twenty-four, two thousand ten. Prior to this pivotal role, Fofana served as the director of economic research at the commerce ministry, where he honed his expertise in economic policy and governance.
Fofana's tenure as Prime Minister was marked by a brief resignation on January sixteenth, two thousand fourteen, but he was reinstated just three days later, demonstrating his resilience and the confidence placed in him by the President. His leadership during this period was crucial as Guinea navigated various economic challenges.
After President Condé secured a second term in the October two thousand fifteen presidential election, Fofana stepped down from his position as Prime Minister on December twenty-third, two thousand fifteen. His departure was followed by the appointment of Mamady Youla as his successor on December twenty-six, two thousand fifteen, marking the end of a significant chapter in Fofana's political journey.
