Jeremias Chitunda

Jeremias Kalandula Chitunda (February 20, 1942 – November 2, 1992) was an Angolan politician who served as the Vice President of UNITA until his assassination in Luanda, as part of the Halloween Massacre shortly after the first round of the presidential election, held on September 29–30.

Chitunda, born in Chimbuelengue to Emilio Chitunda and Rosalina Kalombo, attended Chimbuelengue and Dondi Mission school in Bela Vista before proceeding to João de Castro College and the Huambo National Secondary School.

José Eduardo dos Santos officially received 49.57% of the vote and UNITA leader Jonas Savimbi won 40.6%.

The government took civilians in trucks to the Camama cemetery and Morro da Luz ravine, shot them, and buried them in mass graves.

On November 2, 1992, assailants attacked Chitunda's convoy, pulling him and another UNITA official from their car and shooting both of them in their faces.
