Oyogist has learned that an El Salvador’s top court has ruled that the country’s president can serve for two consecutive terms, paving way for incumbent Nayib Bukele to stand for re-election in 2024.

The decision could potentially make Bukele, 40, the first president to serve more than five years in office since the 1950s.

Recall Earlier in 2014, the same court ruled that presidents would have to wait 10 years after leaving office to be re-elected.

Elected in 2019, Bukele enjoys Tremendous support in El Salvador over his promises to fight organised crime and improve security in the violence-racked country.

But he has long been accused of authoritarian techniques in governance.
