Ati George Sokomanu, MBE (born January 13, 1937) (original name George Kalkoa) is a ni-Vanuatu politician who served as the first president of the country. He was elected President (a ceremonial office) by the Parliament when Vanuatu gained independence in 1980. He resigned in February 1984 while he was prosecuted for a tax violation, but was reelected and restored to the presidency weeks later by the Parliament for a 5-year term. In December 1988 he attempted to dismiss Prime Minister Walter Lini and install a new government headed by his own nephew Barak Sopé; the Supreme Court of Vanuatu overturned the President's decision the next day. The Electoral College removed Sokomanu from office for "gross misconduct" in 1989.
