Kléber Dadjo

Kléber Dadjo (12 August 1914 – 23 September 1988 or 23 September 1989)[1][2] was a Togolese politician and military officer who served as Interim President of Togo in his role as Chairman of the National Reconciliation Committee from 14 January 1967 to 14 April 1967 following the overthrow of President Nicolas Grunitzky's government.

At the time of Togo's independence in 1960, he was the longest-serving and highest-ranking Togolese in the French Army.

He held the rank of Captain and commanded Togo's tiny defence force, the Garde Togolaise.

He was promoted to Major and eventually to Colonel after the 1963 coup d'état and served as head of the military cabinet of President Nicolas Grunitzky.

After the second military coup d'état on 13 January 1967, Dadjo was named interim President of Togo (as Chairman of the Comité National de Reconciliation), a position that he held until 14 April 1967, when Lt. Col. Gnassingbé Etienne Eyadéma was named president.
