Posted On 02 Aug 2014
The Mayor of Guayaquil Jaime Nebot, reiterated that he will not be candidate to any charge in the presidential and legislative elections of 2017. “People who talk a lot, mistake a lot, I do not fall into that, you know that I am not going to be candidate for anything,” he said during a radio interview picked up by Ecuadorinmediato.com.
In this way Nebot responded to President Rafael Correa, who urged him during an interview in Bucay (Guayas), to be a candidate in the next elections.
The meeting Nebot held with his counterpart from Quito, Mauricio Rodas, caused an speculation on a possible presidential candidacy.
For his part, Correa insists that he will run for reelection in 2017 as the last resort, so Alianza PAIS wins the election.
