Mirna Louisa-Godett

Mirna Louisa-Godett (born 29 January 1954) was Prime Minister of the Netherlands Antilles from 11 August 2003 until 3 September 2004.

Louisa-Godett became Prime Minister because her brother Anthony Godett, leader of the Party Workers' Liberation Front 30 May (FOL), was suspected of fraud.[1] Their father was Wilson Godett, also known as Papa Godett, leader of the 1969 Curaçao uprising. Critics accused Louisa-Godett of being merely a puppet of her brother.[2]

The Godett government collapsed in early 2004 over allegations of corruption against justice minister Ben Komproe.[3][4]
