Gideon Orkar Coup: The C-130 Plane Crash of September 26, 1992

During their trials in July 1990, Major Gideon Orkar and his fellow conspirators reportedly told the military tribunal that their coup against General Ibrahim Babangida was in three steps. The last step was that unless all the junior officers were killed, there would be no hiding place for the Babangida regime.

Two years later, on September 26, 1992, over 150 middle-grade officers died in a Lockheed C-130 plane crash.

This video aims to recall the unfortunate event of that day and what really caused the crash of the Lockheed C-130? #HistoryVille #C130
