Nicaraguan leader proposes extending presidential term by another year

Nicaraguan leader Daniel Ortega has proposed extending his presidential term by an additional year. This move is not unprecedented, as the constitution has been amended previously to allow Ortega to remain in power beyond his original term limits. Ortega, who is 80 years old, has been in power for multiple terms, with his current term set to expire. The proposed extension would further consolidate his hold on power in Nicaragua.
