2. He used unfair practices to win the election.
3. He and his government has changed the constitution several times in the past years, to increase more powers of the President.
4. Under his authoritarian regime, the workers of the opposition parties were harassed, and their party meetings were interrupted.
5. the Nobody, be it media, could not criticize his government.
