The Franco-Guinean Union (French: Union franco-guinéenne, abbreviated UFG) was a political party in Guinea. The party was founded in February 1947. The organization functioned as a Conakry-based coordination committee of the different ethnic-based interests that supported Yacine Diallo. Its main backers were chiefs from the Futa Jallon.[1] [2] The party was linked to the French Section of the Workers' International (SFIO).[2]
UFG was during its entire existence a rival of the African Democratic Rally (RDA). Diallo supported French colonial rule in Guinea.[1]
In the 1951 National Assembly election, the UFG (along with SFIO) supported two candidates, Yacine Diallo and Albert Liurette.[3]
UFG disintegrated after Diallo's death.[4]
