José Marcos Mavungo
José Marcos Mavungo is an Angolan human rights activist and former political prisoner known for his advocacy for the independence of the Cabinda Enclave. He was sentenced to six years in prison in 2015 for inciting insubordination and violence against the Angolan state after calling for a peaceful protest, although he was later acquitted in 2016 due to lack of evidence. After his release, Mavungo relocated to Portugal, where he is pursuing a doctorate focused on the impact of oil on development in Cabinda, a region rich in natural resources that has been embroiled in conflict for decades.
