Francisco José Fernandes Costa (Portuguese: [fɾɐ̃ˈsiʃku ʒuˈzɛ fɨɾˈnɐ̃dɨʃ ˈkɔʃtɐ]; 1867–1925) was a Portuguese lawyer and politician. He was a member of the Portuguese Republican Party and later of the Evolutionist Party, the Republican Liberal Party and the Nationalist Party. He was civil governor of Coimbra, minister of the Navy (1912–1913; 1915) and Commerce (1921). He is most remembered for being the President of the Ministry (Prime Minister) of the short-lived "five minutes government", who resigned the same day it was to take office, on 15 January 1920.[1][2]
