Meet Brazil's Inah Canabarro, the world’s oldest living person
Sister Inah Canabarro, a 116-year-old nun from Brazil, has officially become the world’s oldest living person following the recent passing of Japan’s Tomiko Itooka, who was 116.
Born in 1908 in southern Brazil, Sister Inah has witnessed monumental events in history, from two world wars to the moon landing. Her extraordinary life includes a remarkable connection to Brazil's political history—she once taught General João Figueiredo, the country’s last military dictator.
