RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – The opposition Citizens Alliance for Liberty (CxL) presented this Wednesday its presidential candidate to challenge Nicaragua’s President Daniel Ortega in the general elections of next November 7, amid the wave of arrests against political and civil leaders.
The former head of the Nicaraguan Resistance, Oscar Sobalvarro, and the former beauty queen of Nicaragua 2017, Berenice Quezada, were proclaimed candidates for president and vice-president, respectively, for the center-right CxL Alliance.
That formula was presented in a hotel in Managua, guarded by the National Police, and amid criticisms to the electoral process for the arrest of seven presidential aspirants, the cancellation of the legal entities of two political parties, and the electoral structural control by the Sandinistas.
