| dbo:abstract | Yahya James Kanu, auch James Yaya Kanu, (* Magburaka, Tonkolili; † 29. Dezember 1992 in Freetown) war Oberst der Sierra Leone Armed Forces und als Vorsitzender des National Provisional Ruling Council (NPRC) in Sierra Leone – unbestätigten Angaben nach – vom 29. April bis maximal 1. Mai 1992 Staatsoberhaupt. Kanu war angeblich Anführer beim Putsch gegen Präsident Joseph Saidu Momoh im April 1992. Seine Rolle bleibt jedoch unklar, da er eigentlich als Freund Momohs galt und jede Verbindung zu den in den Putsch verwickelten Soldaten abstritt. Kanu wurde umgehend oder nach wenigen Tagen von seinem Nachfolger Valentine Strasser festgenommen und im Pademba Road Prison inhaftiert. Er wurde am 29. Dezember 1992 bzw. – laut Amnesty International – am 30. Dezember 1992 mit 25 (oder 28) anderen Personen, nach einem gescheiterten Staatsstreich gegen Strasser, hingerichtet. Eine Verurteilung wegen Hochverrats fand erst nach der Hinrichtung statt. (de) Colonel Yahya Kanu (born in Magburaka, Tonkolili District, Sierra Leone, died 29 December 1992) Kanu was a loyalist to president Joseph Saidu Momoh, and his position in the coup is unclear. He was first reported by Reuters to have led the coup, but that same day he went onto the BBC's Focus on Africa to deny that role, claiming instead that he was attempting to negotiate with the mutineers. He was imprisoned by Valentine Strasser, who eventually took power in the coup. Kanu was later executed by Valentine Strasser, Solomon Musa, Maada Bio and Idriss Kamara on a beach near Freetown, after being accused of organizing a counter-coup with All People's Congress supporter . The pair were at the time interred in the Pademba Road jail in Freetown. The British-trained Kanu had won a reputation as one of the most dynamic battlefront commanders during the war that broke out when Revolutionary United Front rebels of Foday Sankoh crossed into Sierra Leone in 1991 from part of Liberia under the control of the Liberian rebel leader Charles Taylor. After the rebels approached the eastern Sierra Leone city of Kenema in mid-1991, they were pushed back by Kanu's Cobra battalion with the help of Liberian irregular forces, mostly refugees from Samuel Doe's army, who went on to become a component of ULIMO. The combined force quickly routed the rebels from the towns of Gandorhun and Zimmi before reaching the Mano River Bridge crossing into Liberia. These gains were lost later in the war as control of towns frequently changed hands, something that battlefront soldiers often blamed on a lack of resources from Freetown. This was a major factor contributing to the 1992 coup. (en) James Yahya Kanu (ur. w Magburaka, zm. 29 grudnia 1992 w pobliżu Freetown) – sierraleoński wojskowy w stopniu pułkownika i polityk, były szef państwa od 30 kwietnia do 1 maja 1992 jako przewodniczący Tymczasowej Narodowej Rady Rządzącej. Został wyszkolony wojskowo przez Brytyjczyków. W latach 90. zwalczał rebelie w pobliżu granicy z Liberią, m.in. odbił miasto Kenema. Jego rola w zamachu stanu z kwietnia 1992 nie jest jasna. Przejął władzę po ucieczce z kraju prezydenta Josepha Saidu Momoha, jednak prawdopodobnie nie był organizatorem puczu. W wywiadzie dla BBC dzień po zamachu określił się jako zwolennik wielopartyjnej demokracji, wspierający Momoha. Wkrótce został aresztowany przez Valentine’a Strassera, który przejął władzę nad krajem. Został oskarżony o przygotowywanie kolejnego przewrotu z politykami Kongres Ogólnoludowego i stracony 29 grudnia 1992 na plaży w pobliżu Freetown razem z 26 innymi ewentualnymi zamachowcami.
