Ossufo Momade (born 30 January 1961) is a Mozambican politician.
He has served as president of the Mozambican National Resistance (RENAMO), the main opposition party of Mozambique since January 17, 2019.
He assumed the presidency of the party after the death of its leader Afonso Dhlakama in May 2018 on an interim basis until he was elected president of the party at an internal congress held at the beginning of the following year.
On August 1, 2019, Momade agreed to renounce violence and signed a peace agreement with Mozambique President Filipe Nyusi at RENAMO's remote military base in the Gorongosa mountains.
This agreement resulted in the last remaining members of the RENAMO insurgency surrendering their weapons.
A second signing ceremony then took place in Mapotu's Peace Square, which result in Momade declaring that he and members of RENAMO would now focus on "maintaining peace and national reconciliation."
