This Wikipedia article records that Senegal was the first newly independent African state to establish diplomatic relations with the Holy See, tracing the mission from Jean-Marie Maury's 1959 appointment as Apostolic Delegate for French West Africa through his elevation to the first Apostolic Nuncio to Senegal on 28 December 1961, and notes the post is usually combined with the nunciature to Cabo Verde, Guinea-Bissau and Mauritania. It names no concordat between Senegal and the Holy See. This description is adapted from Wikipedia contributors under CC BY-SA 4.0; changes were made. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/
