Six civils devant la Haute Cour d'Abuja, 36 officiers supérieurs devant la cour martiale du Nigeria, tous poursuivis pour avoir fomenté le putsch manqué de fin d'année dernière. Cette tentative de coup d'État contre le président Bola Tinubu en octobre 2025 avait d'abord été démentie par Abuja et l'armée nigériane, avant que les autorités ne finissent pas l'admettre en ce début d'année. Le procès des accusés civils a commencé en début de semaine (lundi), celui des militaires s'ouvre ce vendredi 8 mai devant une cour martiale spécialement créée pour l'occasion. Qui sont véritablement ces hommes ? Que s'est-il vraiment passé en octobre 2025 ? Et pourquoi la présidence a tout fait pour cacher cette tentative de putsch ? Jibrin Ibrahim, chercheur principal au Centre pour la démocratie et le développement d'Abuja, est l’invité de Sidy Yansané.
