Kathmandu, May 14 (EFE).- Khadga Prasad Sharma Oli, who was removed from office after losing a vote of confidence this week, was renominated as prime minister of Nepal Friday.
The sixty-nine-year-old, commonly known as K.P. Sharma Oli, was sworn in by President Bidya Devi Bhandari, after the opposition failed to gather enough support for a majority government by the deadline of Thursday evening.
This is the third time the leader has been sworn in as prime minister, following a brief stint between October 2015 and August 2016 and after winning elections under the country’s new constitution in February 2018.
