María Pilar Nsue Angüe Osa (1945 or 1950 – 18 January 2017) was a noted Equatoguinean writer and Minister of Education and Culture.

In narrating her own life, Maria Nsue often underscored the primal and formative impact of colonial interventions.

She claimed to have been born in jail, in 1948, in the city of Bata, where her parents had been confined for resisting the authority of the colonial regime.

She spent her early childhood in Bidjabidján as a result of the arbitrary delineations of European colonial cartographers and policy makers.

At the age of eight, Maria Nsue was entrusted to a Protestant missionary family temporarily assigned to the local mission.

Similarly rooted in tradition, but integrating percussion and live performance through the application of modern technologies, is the CD-ROM project  Mbayah, o la leyenda del sauce llorón (Mbayah, or the Legend of the Weeping Willow), released in 1997, for which she composed the narrative and music.
