Sotilasarvo kenraali

Kenraali Yakubu Dan-Yumma Gowon (s. 19. lokakuuta 1934) oli Nigerian sotilashallituksen johtaja vuosina 1966–1975. Hänen kaudellaan käytiin Biafran sota (1966–1970).

Gowon opiskeli sotilasuralle Ghanassa ja Englannin Sandhurstissa. Tammikuun 1966 vallankaappauksen yhteydessä kenraali Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi nimitti Gowonin ylipäälliköksi. Myöhemmin hän noisi valtionpäämieheksi ja jatkoi toimessa vuoteen 1975 asti.[1]

Sotilashallitus kaatui vallankaappauksessa kesällä 1975, ja Gowon lähti maanpakoon Britanniaan, jossa hän hankki tohtorintutkinnon  valtiotieteellisestä Warwickin yliopistosta. Gowan asui maanpaossa Pohjois-Lontoon ja Hertfordshiren rajalla, missä hän on suurelta osin tullut osaksi alueen englantilaista yhteisöä .Hän toimi myös tuolloin kirkkoherrana Pyhän Neitsyt Marian seurakuntakirkossa[2]
