Ecuarunari, the indigenous organization in the Sierra region of Ecuador, will initiate a mandate revocation process against President Daniel Noboa, as announced by its new president, Leonidas Iza. This decision was made during the recent congress held by Ecuarunari, where Iza was elected. He emphasized the importance of starting this process to involve coordination with other organizations, particularly in light of similar movements initiated by the Confederación Nacional de Organizaciones Campesinas, Indígenas, Negras y Montubias (Fenocin).

Iza's announcement comes against a backdrop of increasing tensions and dissatisfaction with Noboa's presidency among indigenous and agricultural organizations. As Iza assumes his role, he is focused on asserting Ecuarunari's position and rallying support from other allied groups to strengthen their movement against the current administration. The mandate revocation process is not just a political maneuver; it represents the growing demands for accountability and responsiveness from the government toward marginalized communities.

The push for the revocation highlights the challenges that President Noboa faces in maintaining his administration amidst protests and calls for reform from various sectors of society. The outcome of this initiative could significantly influence the political landscape in Ecuador, showcasing the power dynamics between indigenous organizations and the state, which are critical for understanding ongoing social movements in the country.
