Sangumba studied in the United States before joining the National Union of Angolan Students (UNEA) in the early 1960s. In 1965 he became UNEA's representative for external affairs, a precursor for his future appointment as the National Union for the Total Independence of Angola (UNITA's) Foreign Minister in August 1969.[2]
On February 9, 1976, Sangumba had officially announced that The central Angolan city of Huambo, that where two Westernsupported nationalist movements proclaimed the establishment of a government last November, had fallen to Sovietsupplied Angolan forces led by Cuban troops.[3]
Death and aftermath
Jonas Savimbi, leader of UNITA, allegedly ordered Sangumba's assassination[4][5] along with several other potential rivals for leadership of UNITA during the Angolan Civil War.[6]
Sangumba's family have been trying to find the reasons that led his murder, but have not found anything out. Tribute videos about him have been posted on sites such as YouTube.[7]
