Keep Leader of the NDP, 4th in the 2009 election, 5th in the 2014 election (and his party won a seat - can't find a list, but are you sure it's not him?) He cannot possibly count as not being a "Major local political figure". It's a bit like Jill Stein, who is also unelected , not having an article, although his party has actually won a national seat.

:http://web.archive.org/web/20140719063922/http://www.gbissau.com/?page_id=11253 has a list (also https://github.com/everypolitician-scrapers/guinea-bissau-national-peoples-assembly/blob/master/gbissau-members.html); not sure if it's members as of that date or when elected but doesn't mention him.

(Withdrawn): While this person does lead a political party, the party is a minor one, having only gained 1 seat in a 102 seat assembly. Further, it wasn't him who held that seat, thus failing WP:NPOL. While I can find mention of him, there's no significant coverage; just listings of him. This fails WP:SIGCOV. the Jill Stein case is not comparable. As shown here, there is a very significant coverage of her. We need reliable, secondary sources that discuss the subject in detail, per WP:SIGCOV. We're not seeing that here. If such sources are found, I'm willing to reconsider but right now I'm not seeing it. --Hammersoft (talk) 03:56, 27 November 2019 (UTC)

:* Keep Given Number 57's links below, withdrawing my delete above. Thanks Number 57! --Hammersoft (talk) 13:41, 28 November 2019 (UTC)

Speedy keep He was Minister of Commerce and Industry in the most recent government ([https://www.africanews.com/2019/07/05/guinea-bissau-names-gender-par-cabinet-after-ethiopia-south-africa//]) and previously served as Minister of Justice ([https://issafrica.org/impact/spotlight-stability-in-guinea-bissau-requires-institutional-reforms]) so clearly passes WP:NPOLITICIAN. Also several stories about him that would help pass GNG ([https://www.radiojovem.info/guine-bissau-iaia-djalo-e-candidato-do-pnd-a-presidencia-da-guine-bissau/][http://www.rfi.fr/pt/guine-bissau/20170505-guine-bissau-demissao-de-iaia-djalo-por-honestidade-politica]) Pinging Hammersoft for reconsideration.
