Challenges Daniel Noboa will face in his second presidential term
Noboa was reelected to continue as president of Ecuador for the 2025-2029 term. Among the main challenges he faces is consolidating his political power in the country
On April 13, Daniel Noboa won the second round of the presidential elections in Ecuador, winning 55.65 % of the votes against 44.35 % for the Correa candidate, Luisa González.
With this victory, Noboa faces several internal challenges, not least of which is the need to consolidate his political power.
Analysts point out that to achieve this, the president “must articulate parliamentary agreements, avoid political isolation, and maintain a coherent reform agenda that responds to the country’s urgent needs and sets the tone for his second term in office.”
Reelection represents more than a victory over the opposition: “It is a new political cycle with clear opportunities but latent risks. His legitimacy, although solid for the moment, could quickly erode if he does not respond effectively, with the support of the Assembly, to urgent issues such as security, employment, and the fiscal crisis. The key will be to consolidate effective governance and transform his movement into a structured political force.”
Noboa’s agenda, who will face a fragmented Assembly with no majorities starting May 14, emphasizes the need to establish pacts and alliances with actors such as Pachakutik and the PSC “to achieve the minimum 76 votes necessary to pass bills.” He will need to demonstrate a strong negotiating capacity and the ability to “build bridges beyond ideological differences, which will be essential for advancing his agenda.”
A strategic management vision to respond to the country’s structural demands, with proposals for both social and parliamentary reforms, will be key in Daniel Noboa’s new presidential term.
