Luís Severino de Almeida Cabral (11 April 1931 – 30 May 2009) was the first President of Guinea-Bissau. He served from 1974 to 1980 when a military coup d’état led by João Bernardo Nino Vieira deposed him. Luís Cabral was a half-brother of Amílcar Cabral with whom he co-founded the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde (PAIGC) in 1956.
