Villavicencio, who was assassinated as he left a campaign event, didn’t have a long career as a politician but had an extensive track record of investigative journalism
Fernando Villavicencio, the Ecuadorian presidential candidate assassinated as he left a campaign event, was not the frontrunner in the upcoming elections, but he had won support for his tough-on-crime and anti-graft platform.
His slogan was “Es tiempo de valientes” – It’s time for the brave.
