Second Republic Day is a national holiday in Guinea, observed annually on April 3. It marks the anniversary of the 1984 coup d'état that brought General Lansana Conté to power following the death of Guinea's first president, Ahmed Sékou Touré. This day commemorates the beginning of Guinea's Second Republic.
After the death of Sékou Touré, who led the country since its independence from France in 1958, a military junta led by then Colonel Lansana Conté took control, signaling the end of the First Republic and the start of the Second. Conté would rule as president until his death in December 2008.
