The 1974 Upper Voltan coup d'état was a bloodless military coup which took place in the Republic of Upper Volta on 8 February 1974. The coup was effectively a self-coup, orchestrated by President General Sangoulé Lamizana, against the RDA-led government of Prime Minister Gérard Kango Ouédraogo, formed following the 1970 parliamentary election. Lamizana announced the dissolution of the National Assembly and the suspension of the Constitution, adopted following the 1970 constitutional referendum.
