Zenón Noriega Agüero

Zenón Noriega Agüero (July 12, 1900 – May 7, 1957) was a Peruvian army general who briefly served as the interim president of Peru through a military junta for two months in 1950.

On June 1, 1950, Odría formally stepped down as president in order to pursue his candidacy in a presidential election in which he would be the only candidate.

He was immediately appointed prime minister by Odría, and served in that position until August 1954.

Shortly after he was accused of organizing a plot to depose Odría, he was sent into exile aboard one of the navy ships (August 1954).

It was said the conspiracy involved important people, being a symptom of the degree of decomposition in the Odriist regime.
