Musa Demi

He was one of the main proponents of the Albanian National Awakening in the region of Filiates, Paramythia and Igoumenitsa (Çamëria).

He graduated from the local Ottoman rüşdiye (secular state school) and then continued his studies in Ioannina.

In the early 1900s he became one of the founders of the Vëllezëria association of Filiates and was the commander of one of the most important çetë (armed guerrilla groups fighting for independence of Albanians).

[2][3] Musa Demi, Rasih Dino along with other locals provided the funds for the construction of the school building.

In 1978, for the 100th anniversary of the formation of the League of Prizren, he was posthumously decorated with the civil medal For Patriotic Activities (Albanian: Për Veprimtari Patriotike).
