Alichaguliwa kama Rais wa kwanza wa Guinea akatumikia kuanzia mwaka1958 hadi kifo chake 1984. Touré alikuwa miongoni mwa wazalendo wa awali wa Guinea waliojishughulisha katika harakati za kupigania uhuru wa nchi kutoka mikononi mwa Wafaransa.
Mwaka wa 1960, alitangaza chama chake cha Parti démocratique de Guinée (PDG) kuwa chama halali pekee nchini humo na kuongoza tangu hapo kwa utawala wa kiimla. Alichaguliwa kwa maneno tu kwa vipindi saba vya miaka saba, lakini Guinea haikuwa na chama kingine cha kisiasa, na aliwafunga au kuwafukuza nchini viongozi wakubwa wa upinzani dhidi yake .
Mnamo Oktoba 2021, kwenye hafla ya maadhimisho ya miaka 50 ya mauaji ya Oktoba 1971, jamaa za watu 70 wa Guinea walioangamizwa chini ya utawala wa Sekou Touré walimwomba Rais Mamady Doumbouya ukarabati na mazishi ya heshima kwa waathiriwa.
