Dauda Usman
Dauda Usman was a Nigerian army officer who gained notoriety for his involvement in the 1976 coup attempt against General Yakubu Gowon, orchestrated by Lt. Col. Bukar Dimka. After the coup's failure, Usman, like his fellow conspirator Clement Yildar, became a fugitive with an uncertain fate, prompting ongoing discussions about accountability and historical memory in Nigeria. The lack of information surrounding Usman's disappearance has led to calls for recognition and justice for those affected by the political events of that era.
