Born in the family of a mandarin , who served at the court of the emperor Thanh Thai of the Nguyen dynasty , during the era of French colonial rule , was the fourth of six sons. After the French overthrew the emperor Thanh Thai under the pretext of his madness, Father Ngo Dinh Nyu resigned in protest and became a farmer.
He studied in France , after graduating from the National Charter School , returned to Vietnam from France after the outbreak of World War II . During his studies, often in the Latin Quarter , he was influenced by the philosophy of personalism created in the 1930s by Emmanuel Mounier and other progressive Catholic figures. Mounier's heirs in Paris, publishing the left-catholic Esprit magazine, subsequently condemned Nude as a con man. In 1943, Nu worked at the Hanoi National Library and married a woman, Chan Le Suan, who would later become known as Madame Nu . At the same time, it was rumored that he had a secret affair with his mother-in-law, who was only six years older than him. Soon, the French fired Ding Nu because of nationalist activities, and he moved to the city of Dalat , becoming the editor of the newspaper.
After the French were defeated at the Battle of Dien Bien Phu , the elder brother Ngo Dinh Niu, Ngo Dinh Diem, she was appointed by the former emperor (and now the nominal principal of the State of Vietnam) Bao Dai prime minister. In early 1955, French Indochina was abolished, as a result of which Zyem received temporary actual control over the south of the country. A referendum was scheduled for October 23, 1955, the task of which was to determine the future form of government in the south. Emperor Bao Dai advocated the restoration of the monarchy, Ngo Dinh Ziem - for the establishment of the republic. The referendum was held with the support of the Nyu family by the secret Kang Lao party, which in fact served as the secret police, providing him with an electoral base and organizing and monitoring the referendum. Campaigning for Bao Dai was actually banned, and as a result, the referendum results were falsified, Bao Dai supporters were terrorized by people hired by Nu. Zyem received 98.2% of the vote, including 605,025 in Saigon , where only 450,000 voters were registered. The number of voters for Zyem also exceeded the number of registered voters in other areas.
Nu also created a network of secret organizations of politicians, security officials, and workers, and built a structure of five cells each to spy on dissidents and encourage the faithful to the Zyom regime.
On November 2, 1963, Zyong Van Minem carried out a coup d'etat during which Ngo Dinh Zyem and Ngo Dinh Niu were killed.
