JAIME ROLDOS AGUILERA


Jaime Roldos Aguilera has been a famous person in my country. First of all, he was born in 1940 in Guayaquil, Ecuador. Because he came from a poor family, he started to work when he was 10 years old, (he worked selling candies). Next, he was an excellent student and he graduated from the university called Santiago of Guayaquil University as a lawyer. He got a grant to travel and study in one of the universities of Belgium, (Belgium University) and he graduated in 1969. After he came back to Ecuador, he married Ann Roldos when he was thirty years old. Then, he came to Chicago to improve his studies and two years later he graduated from the University of Illinois (U.I.C.). After that, he started his career and he was considerate as one of the most qualities lawyers in Ecuador for eight years when after that he won the elections as the new President of Ecuador. Finally he was famous for the Ecuadorians because he was the only person who tried to change our country but when he was doing the effort, unfortunately his presidency was over because when he was traveling to Loja city, his airplane fell down and it burned in 1981. It has stayed marked in the Ecuador life because nobody knows who caused this accident and it will be forever.
