Manasseh Damukana Sogavare (born 17 January 1955) is a Solomon Islander politician serving as Minister of Finance since 2024. He served as the prime minister of Solomon Islands for a total of nine years from 2000–2001, 2006–2007, 2014–2017, and 2019–2024.[1] Sogavare has served in the National Parliament representing East Choiseul since 1997.[2]
Sogavare has been widely accused of promoting democratic backsliding in Solomon Islands.[3][4] The Solomon Islands under Sogavare has been criticised by many as being increasingly autocratic[5] or even authoritarian.[6][7] Despite earning a modest formal salary, he has accrued a vast[clarification needed] real estate portfolio, raising questions about his sources of income.[8]
