Nino Vieira
Nino Vieira was a prominent political figure in Guinea-Bissau, known for his role as a military leader and later as the country's president. He played a significant part in the liberation struggle against Portuguese colonial rule and was a key figure in the post-independence political landscape. His leadership was marked by a series of conflicts and coups, ultimately leading to his controversial presidency from 1980 until his death in 2009.
