Headline Newly Appointed Secretary-General of the Organization of African Unity

Caption Description Mr. Diallo, newly appointed Secretary-General of the Organization of African Unity, has served as Guinea's Permanent Representative to the United Nations since 1958 when his country was admitted to United Nations membership. He has been Chairman of the Special Committee on the Policies of Apartheid of the Government of the Republic of South Africa from April 1963 to the present. In 1962, Mr. Diallo was elected one of the Vice-Presidents of the seventeenth session of the General Assembly. Born in 1925 at Poredaka, Guinea, he studied in France and received his License en Driot in 1951 and, in 1954, his Doctorate in Law. Prior to his country's independence, he held some of the highest posts ever achieved by an African in French Equatorial or French West Africa. In 1954, he was appointed Deputy of the Procureur (District Attorney) of the Republic at the Court of Thies, then he was made Chef de Cabinet of the High Commissioner for French West Africa, and in 1957 he was Secretary-General of the Grand Council of French West Africa.
