Cartel 'declare war' on Ecuador's President - Times Radio



“A kidnapped officer was forced to read out a statement in which he says, you declared a state of emergency, and we declare police, civilians, and soldiers to be the spoils of war.”

At least ten people have been killed in Ecuador since President Noboa declared a state of emergency, explains Jon Bonfiglio.

Sonny Boy is not the right one for the job, never will be. The country has had a bogus contender stuffed into the highest seat in the land. Of course the people will pay dearly for this crime against them.
