Álvaro Noboa will decide until July 28 if he returns to be the presidential candidate for 2021
Until next July 28, businessman Álvaro Noboa will give an answer regarding whether or not he will be a presidential candidate. Last year he had said that he would not run for that dignity because rather he wanted to promote an initiative to found a country called America that brings together all the nations of the continent.
But in recent weeks, as a result of the dissemination on social networks of an emotional message from her son Juan Sebastián, her name sounded strong again; even, he says, it is measured in voting intention surveys in which he is the winner.
Noboa told this newspaper, however, that his decision depends on how much support he receives from the public: “In order to govern this country, I need three things: that the Ecuadorian people, standing together, destroy the corrupt electoral system that has prevailed in this country in the last 30 years; that the people support to put prisoners of the corrupt in the country; that the people denounce and collaborate to put the country’s traffickers in jail. I alone cannot destroy those three forces. ”
When asked how the people could do it, he indicated: “The people can do it by going out into the streets: two million in Quito, two million in Guayaquil and millions in all the provinces. There will be no police, military, gangster or trafficker who can confront them. ”
The businessman insisted that he was a victim of electoral fraud in 1998 and 2006. Currently his party, Adelante Ecuatoriano Adelante, is appealing a decision of the National Electoral Council on its extinction of the Register of Political Organizations. (I)
