Diplomatic career

Cécé Loua was born in

Macedonia, from 12 April 1996 to June 1998. From 1995 to 1996, he was a member of the National Coordination Committee of Liberian and Sierra Leonean Refugees in Guinea.[1]

Later, Cécé Loua served as Guinea's Ambassador to South Africa, Angola, Botswana, Mozambique, Namibia, Mauritius, Zimbabwe, and Madagascar until 31 January 2007, when he instead became Ambassador to Germany.[1] After nearly two years in that post, he was appointed to the Guinean government as Minister of Foreign Affairs and Guineans Abroad on 14 January 2009, following the December 2008 military coup d'état.[3]

After junta leader Moussa Dadis Camara was shot in the head and wounded on 3 December 2009, Cécé Loua said that Camara had undergone surgery and that his condition was good. He visited Camara at a hospital in Morocco and told the press on 7 December 2009 that Camara was able to recognize people, although he still could not speak.[4] Later on the same day, Cécé Loua said that he had spoken to Camara and that Camara had responded; according to Cécé Loua, that demonstrated that "he retains his mental faculties".[5]
