Alfredo Jorge Nobre da Costa, GCC (1923—April 1, 1996), commonly known just by Nobre da Costa, pron. IPA: ['nɔbɾ(ɨ) dɐ 'kɔʃtɐ]. was a Portuguese engineer and politician. A moderate independent center-left politician, he was chosen by President António Ramalho Eanes to lead a government that would finish the four-year legislative term, which had been initiated in the Portuguese legislative election, 1976. His cabinet consisted of independents. However, it failed to gain a majority in the Assembly of the Republic, and Nobre da Costa resigned. He was replaced by another independent, Carlos Alberto da Mota Pinto.
