Nicaragua’s president says no more elections in his country

By GhanaSummary NewsroomNigeria

Nicaragua’s President, Daniel Ortega, in his desperate bid to cling to power, has declared that the country will not hold any new elections.

The 80-year-old authoritarian leader said his administration, which includes his wife and co-president, Rosario Murillo, is working with the parliament to create a law that would “build a wall” against elections.

The president has ruled the country since 2007 and has, on multiple occasions, manipulated the law to extend his stay in power.
