Ibaneis Rocha Barros Junior (Brazilian Portuguese: [ibɐˈnejs ˈʁɔʃɐ ˈbaʁus ˈʒũɲoʁ]; born 10 July 1971) is a Brazilian politician, lawyer and the current Governor of the Federal District. He defeated incumbent governor Rodrigo Rollemberg with 69% of the popular vote.[1] A member of the Brazilian Democratic Movement (MDB), Rocha is the first Federal District native to serve as its governor.[2]

Suspension of duties

On 8 January 2023, Brazil Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes temporarily suspended Ibaneis for a period of 90 days from the position of governor after the 2023 invasion of the Brazilian Congress[3][4] in the federal capital of Brazil for allegations of security flaws.[5][6] The protests were led by a combination of individuals who support former president Jair Bolsonaro and oppose current president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva.[7][8] Vice-Governor Celina Leão temporarily took over from Rocha.[9][10]

Notes

  1. Leão began serving as governor on 8 January 2023 after Rocha was suspended by Alexandre de Moraes for inaction during the 2023 Praça dos Três Poderes attack.
