Political career

Noboa was governor of Guayas Province from March 1983 to August 1984.[2] In the 1998 presidential elections he was the running mate of Jamil Mahuad, who won.[3] He was sworn in as Vice President of Ecuador on 10 August 1998.[4]


Presidency (2000–2003)

On 21 January 2000, a military coup deposed Mahuad's government and the following day Noboa became President of Ecuador in constitutional order.[5][6]

Noboa's presidency was marked by attempts to revive the Ecuadorian economy, which was in a recession at the time, including the freeing of US$400 million worth of assets frozen by the previous government.[7] He left office in 2003 after Lucio Gutiérrez was elected president in the 2002 presidential election.[8] Noboa's presidency became notable for restoring the country's economy.[3]

Controversy

Noboa was accused of mishandling the country's foreign debt by the former president, León Febres Cordero.[9]

After his term ended, accusations of irregularities in foreign debt negotiation that cost the country $9 billion dollars were levelled at the former president.[10] He completely denied the charges and applied for political asylum in the Dominican Republic, which was granted on 11 August 2003.[11]

The Supreme Court case against him was annulled by an unconstitutional, yet functioning, Supreme Court on the grounds that the case was not initiated by a two-thirds congressional vote as the Constitution stipulates.[12] However, he was placed under house arrest in May 2005 and Ecuador's Interior Minister planned to prosecute.[13] On 16 March 2006, a Supreme Court judge lifted the detention order and charged Noboa with being an accessory after the fact.[14]

Personal life

Noboa was born in Guayaquil.[15] He studied political and social sciences and obtained a Doctor in Law from the University of Guayaquil.[16] He was chancellor of the University from 1986 until 1996 and also taught law there.[17] He was 83.

Noboa died on 16 February 2021 after suffering a heart attack while in recovery from surgery for a brain tumor at Jackson Memorial Hospital in Miami, Florida.[18]
