Louisa-Godett became prime minister, following fraud allegations against her brother Anthony Godett, leader of the Party Workers' Liberation Front 30 May (FOL).[1] Their father was Wilson Godett, also known as Papa Godett, leader of the 1969 Curaçao uprising. Critics accused Louisa-Godett of being merely a puppet of her brother.[2]

The Godett government collapsed in early 2004 over corruption allegations against justice minister Ben Komproe.[3][4]
