Omar Barboza

Omar Enrique Barboza Gutiérrez is the president of the Venezuelan political party Un Nuevo Tiempo (A New Era) in opposition to Nicolás Maduro, the current President of Venezuela.
In February 2009 a constitutional amendment to remove term limits on public offices in Venezuela was approved 54% of voters in the Venezuelan constitutional referendum, 2009. Barboza said "We're democrats. We accept the results," to The Associated Press, but claimed that the results were skewed by Hugo Chávez's broad use of state resources to win the vote, through state-run news media, political pressure on 2 million public employees and frequent presidential speeches (cadenas) which all television stations in Venezuela are required to air, and added that "Effectively this will become a dictatorship."
