Who was Alfredo Nobre da Costa?
Alfredo Jorge Nobre da Costa, GCC, commonly known just by Nobre da Costa, was a Portuguese engineer and politician.
He was the only son of Alfredo Henrique Andresen da Costa, of Goan, Italian, French and/or Catalan, Danish and Portuguese ancestry, and wife Portuguese Maria Helena Nobre.
He graduated from Instituto Superior Técnico.
A moderate independent center-left politician, he was chosen by President António Ramalho Eanes to lead a government that would finish the four-year legislative term, which had been initiated in the Portuguese legislative election, 1976. His cabinet consisted of independents. However, it failed to gain a majority in the Assembly of the Republic, and Nobre da Costa resigned. He was replaced by Carlos Alberto da Mota Pinto.
He married on 5 May 1951 Maria de Lourdes de Carvalho e Cunha Fortes da Gama and had a single daughter Vera Maria Nobre da Costa.
