Oh yeah? Popular comedian wins presidential election in Guatemala

Basketmouth, get in here! This could be you! Lol. A popular TV comic actor and stand up comedian, Jimmy Morales, with no prior political experience. has been elected president of Guatemala.

The 46 year old won by a landslide yesterday Sunday October 25th by taking more than 72% of the vote. His biggest opponent was former Quatemala First Lady, Sandra Torres..



“As President, I received a mandate, and the mandate of the people of Guatemala is to fight against the corruption that is consuming us. God bless and thank you,” Morales said after he won.
An election was called for last month after the country's former President Otto PĂ©rez Molina stepped down in the face of a bribery scandal. Molina is now in a military prison. Now a comic actor is president. How neat!

    4. If only old men like Obansanjo, Buhari etc can give young blood an opportunity. Nigerian president are only given to those who are very frail & close to their graves. The only thing Buhari has achieved so far is "travelling".. Always traveling. He's 2nd name should be "baba safe journey" The old man is just using his last minute on earth to tour d whole world.. Sai Buhari I hail o!!!

  20. o.O

    Politics is now a joke. [pun intended]. Politics is now a laughing matter. Imagine. In Nigeria, its serious money making business.

    Imagine President Basketmouth using laughter [as his own body language] to sellotape the licking economy and fight Boko Haram. It might work, if terrorist have a sense of humour.

    Oya, President Basketmouth, jokes aside, stand for election. If you win, we will laugh. You don't win, we will even laugh more.

  40. The country's population of eligible voters must be around 100k or less and I'm guessing 72% of that population are clowns.
