Mohammad Dinah Salifou Camara (died 21 October 1897) was the last king of the Nalu people of Guinea. He is often presented as one of the great figures of resistance to colonial penetration into sub-Saharan Africa, but also has some notoriety for his noted participation at Expo 1889 in Paris. At the end of his life, he was exiled to Saint-Louis, Senegal,[1] under house arrest, where he died in poverty. Dinah Salifou was the holder of the Légion d'honneur.
