Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega has clinched a fourth term in office with a landslide victory, this time with his wife as his running mate.

With more than 98% of the ballots from Sunday's election counted, Ortega had garnered 72.5% of the vote, state media said Monday.

First lady Rosario Murillo has long been the country's unofficial co-president, effectively running the government, analysts of Nicaraguan politics say.

Ortega has been tampering with Nicaraguans brain since 1985, a second term in 2011 and this year he successfully did what OBJ couldn't achieve a third term.

Time will tell how far his wife pushes the boundary of nicaraguan politics. The dude na badoo
