In 1975, the Church Committee went on record with the finding that CIA chief Allen Dulles had ordered Lumumba's assassination as "an urgent and prime objective" [1]

Everything is the CIA lol

Edit:

The Committee later found that while the CIA had conspired to kill Lumumba, it was not directly involved in the murder.

jk everyone just wanted him dead

Edit 2:

Documents indicate that the Congolese leaders who killed Lumumba, including Mobutu Sese Seko and Joseph Kasa-Vubu, received money and weapons directly from the CIA

Okay, back to blaming the CIA for everything bad.
