5 things Guinea's first president, Sekou Toure, will be remembered for

He was among the founders of the Organisation of African Unity

Together with Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana, William Tubman of Liberia and Modibo Keita of Mali, Toure envisioned a unified Africa. He would be among the leaders of free Africa to form the OAU in 1963 in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, where they were hosted by Emperor Haile Selassie.
