This depends on the structure of Diamond and Graphite.
✒ In diamond, each carbon is bonded to four other carbon atoms forming a rigid 3D structure. Hence, it can't conduct electricity.
✒ In graphite, each carbon atom is bonded to three other carbon atoms and it has one free - electron. Hence, it can conduct electricity.
