Twelve Distinguished African Presidents Whose Lives Were Cut Short by Western Powers
The annals of African political leadership are marked by the weighty burdens that fell upon both the rulers and the ruled, both before and after independence.

It is an irrefutable fact that a notable number of African presidents have been removed from power through coups d'état, and a considerable number have been assassinated. This article aims to shed light on the top 12 African presidents who were assassinated, directly or indirectly, by Western powers due to their opposition to imperialism or neocolonialism. Some of these leaders may have contributed to their own demise through their actions.
