Zoilamérica Ortega Murillo (née Narváez Murillo) (born November 13, 1967, in Managua) is a consultant for Comunidad Casabierta, an LGBTI rights organisation in Costa Rica. She is also a former member of the National Assembly of Nicaragua.
In 1998, she accused her stepfather, Daniel Ortega, of sexually abusing her as a child.
According to her account, April 1989 was the last time that Ortega raped her, through a third party. In September 1990, her mother threw her out of the presidential house during a meltdown. Zoilamérica was recovering from a leg operation. Beginning in the 1990s, Zoilamérica recounted that her sexual harassment of her by the former president became telephone calls, and was never physical again.
From her exile in Costa Rica she condemned her stepfather during the 2021 Nicaraguan general election.
