Naquichinisa Hiraku Declares Himself President for Life
Our glorious President has announced that instead of seeking his sixth term his fifth term of office will simply not end.
His Excellency Naquichinisa Hiraku announced today via tweet that the forthcoming presidential election shall be cancelled, and that only parliamentary elections shall hence forth be held in the Federal Republic of Chūhōkō. President Naquichinisa shall remain in office indefinitely, with the necessary changes to the constitution being made as a mere formality. Victorious in five elections and against as many coups and insurgencies, His Excellencies democratic credentials are unquestioned, for none is as beloved by the people as he. Term limits and the pointless exercise of presidential campaigns are merely barriers between the people and their chosen tribune, the immortal genius His Excellency President Naquichinisa Hiraku, reincarnation of Presidents Gayolicaltzin, Djoraxa and Zaachilla as well as at least one Emperor of the Gao-Showans. Since he had no declared opponent in the coming election and the endorsement of all legal political parties even the most blinkered Western liberals could no deny the rationality of his decision to be President until he passes onto on to be reincarnated as an even better President.
It is expected that the Zenshō Socialist dogs who lurk in the jungles shall react to this news with fearful cowering.
