Mohamed Irfaan Ali (born 25 April 1980)[4] is a Guyanese politician serving as the tenth and current president of Guyana since 2020.

He was sworn in as Guyana's tenth president on 2 August 2020, months after his win, due to extensive legal challenges regarding the integrity of the election and a recount of all electoral ballots.

His maternal great-great-great grandparents were Ujiari and Bujhawan who were from Basi village, Telogepur thana in Basti jela in present-day Uttar Pradesh, India.

[13] In 2003, he completed his master's degree in Human Resource Planning Development from the National Institute of Labour Economics, affiliated with the Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, New Delhi.

[20] Irfaan Ali was the presidential candidate of the People's Progressive Party (PPP/C) for the 2 March 2020 general and regional elections in Guyana.

[22] His selection came at a time after Ali had been charged with 19 counts of conspiracy and fraud by Guyana's Special Organized Crime Unit (SOCU).

[26] In his 2020 campaign for the presidency, Ali ran on a mainly economic platform, citing declining growth and increased joblessness under the Granger administration.

Ali is committed to establishing a sovereign wealth fund "protected against political interference", and to strengthen Guyana's ability to uphold the Santiago Principles and the global requirements of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative.
