Vice President of Cape Verde: Position Does Not Exist

Cape Verde does not have a Vice President.

The political system is a semi-presidential republic with:

• President: Head of state (directly elected, 5-year term, two-term limit). Current: José Maria Neves (since Nov 2021).
• Prime Minister: Head of government (appointed by President, accountable to Parliament). Current: Ulisses Correia e Silva (since Apr 2016).

The previous answer (José Ulisses Correia e Silva as VP) was incorrect—he is the Prime Minister. The President's constitutional successor is the President of the National Assembly.
