Ali Rıza Alaboyun (born 8 March 1957) is a Turkish politician who served as the Minister of Energy and Natural Resources in the interim election government formed by Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu between 28 August and 17 November 2015. He was a member of the Justice and Development Party (AKP) from the party's creation until 2015, after which he resigned in order to participate in the election government as an Independent. Before becoming a Minister, Alaboyun served as a Member of Parliament for the electoral district of Aksaray between 2002 and 2015, stepping down at the June 2015 general election due to the AKP's three-term limit on its parliamentarians.
Ali Rıza Alaboyun was born on 8 March 1957 in Aksaray and graduated from İstanbul Technical University Faculty of Minerals. He later travelled to the United States to obtain a masters degree from Pennsylvania State University, specialising in the topics of mineral processing and engineering management. He began his career working for the General Directorate of Mineral Research and Exploration (MTA) and the General Directorate of Mining Affairs. He later became a Deputy General Director of Etibank and served on the bank's executive board.
