Fabricio Alvarado, Presidential Candidate, Nueva República
David Segura, representing the Puntarenas province, will be the first vice presidential candidate. He has gained recognition for his work on security issues, particularly his efforts to strengthen penalties for contract killings. Segura is also a strong advocate for the fishing community, promoting legislation to protect their rights and acknowledge their contribution to the national economy.
Alvarado praised Segura’s work in legislative oversight, commending his commitment to exposing corruption and holding public officials accountable.
We also recognize, in addition to his legislative proposals, the strong work he has carried out from political control, calling things by their name, fighting and denouncing corruption and those who have made public office their source of illicit enrichment.
