The National Unity Party (Portuguese: Partido da Unidade Nacional, PUN) was a political party in Guinea-Bissau.

History

The party was established by Idrissa Djaló on 26 July 2001.[1] In the 2004 parliamentary elections, the party received 1.46% of the vote and failed to win a seat.[1] In the 2005 presidential election, Djaló finished eighth with 0.8% of the vote.

The party boycotted the 2008 parliamentary elections, with Djaló claiming that "the ballot will not resolve any of the persistent great problems in the country".[2] It did not contest presidential elections in 2009 or 2012, but supported the 2012 military coup.[2]
