CIA OFFICER ON PLOT TO KILL LUMUMBA!
There’s long been suspicion the CIA plotted the assassination of Patrice Lumumba, DRC’s first prime minister and independence leader. The spy agency had identified the pan-Africanist as a radical years before he came to power.
In this clip, former CIA officer John Stockwell spills the beans. He says the CIA’s station chief Larry Devlin had plans to poison Lumumba. However, a coup became the preferred option with military chief Joseph Mobutu seizing power and orchestrating Lumumba’s death by firing squad.
The interview is from the documentary ‘Inside the CIA: On Company Business.’
