Daniel Ortega, the long-serving president of Nicaragua, has declared that the country will no longer hold elections. This decision is seen as a strategy to fortify his regime against opposition forces.
At 80 years old, Ortega has been in power for many years, and his recent announcement has raised concerns about the future of democracy in Nicaragua.
By halting elections, Ortega aims to 'build a wall' against the opposition, effectively consolidating his control over the political landscape.
