Sources for the flag of the Republic of Benin (1967)

[edit]
File:Flag of the Republic of Benin (1967).svg

Hi. Do anyone have any source for whether the flag used in the infobox of the Republic of Benin (1967) (former Nigerian break-away state), actually existed. It very much seems to be just copy of the flag of Biafra, and the only source I can find are various internet forums like FOTW, which should not be trusted as sources, the same way Wikipedia alone can not be seen as a source of its own. I tried to bring the issue before on the article for the flag itself, which was since deleted (for the lack of sources), but I was basically just told that "it probably exists, but African sources aren't widely available". I personally disagree with that view point, since we can not run the encyclopedia on the view that "sources are somewhere out there but can't be accessed at the moment", and we should be especially critical on topics like this, which can easly slip under the radar, especially considering there were other cases of fake obscure flags being used in the infoboxes for years without deduction. So, I wanna ask, if maybe someone can verify if this flag is real or fake. Thank you. Artemis Andromeda (talk) 22:40, 24 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
