Luis Carlos Antonio Iberico Núnez (born 1 February 1959) is an Argentine-born Peruvian journalist and politician. Throughout his journalistic career, he served in various news stations during the 1980s and 1990s. He gained prominence for his fight against the Alberto Fujimori administration, denouncing several allegations of corruption involving the press. Alongside Fernando Olivera, he presented the first "Vladi-videos" that would prove the major corruption operations headed by Intelligence Chief Vladimiro Montesinos. His role in Fujimori's downfall would gain him support in a career in politics.[1]
Throughout his political life, he has served as Congressman for four terms, three of them being non-consecutive, between the years 2000 and 2020. He would serve as President of Congress for a brief period of days in July 2014 and for a full-term from 2015 to 2016 and the only opposition Congress President during the presidency of Ollanta Humala. From 2016 to 2018, he served as Peruvian Ambassador to Italy, appointed during the presidency of Pedro Pablo Kuczynski and also served under the presidency of Martin Vizcarra.[1]
Iberico served as Secretary General of the Alliance for Progress party from 2014 to 2016, and from July 2019 until his resignation in October 2019.[2] He was succeeded by current congressman and former governor of La Libertad Region, Luis Valdez Farías. For the 2021 general elections, he is the second running mate of César Acuña. However, the ticket was disqualified on 8 January 2021, due to incomplete information regarding the presidential nominee's income in registration form.[3] However, the ticket was reinstated on 22 January 2021 following an appeal.[4] The ticket ultimately placed seventh with 6% of the popular vote in a heavily atomized election, managing to win La Libertad Region only, Acuna's home, although the party achieved congressional representation throughout the country.[5]
