Diop made his political debut in 2008 with the creation of the Alliance for the Republic by Macky Sall. In July 2012, he was elected deputy on the Dagana departmental list of the Benno Bokk Yakaar coalition, of which he is a member of the parliamentary group. During his tenure, he was a member of the WAEMU Interparliamentary Committee. Since July 2012, Diop has been mayor of the municipality of Richard-Toll. He was re-elected deputy in the legislative elections of 2022 and was elected President of the National Assembly on September 12, 2022, thus becoming the second personality of the State. His election to the presidency of the Assembly came as a surprise: the main contenders for the presidency, including Aminata Touré, head of the APR list in the legislative elections, are not retained by the coalition.
