The president of Nicaragua, officially known as the president of the Republic of Nicaragua , is the head of state and head of government of Nicaragua. The office was created in the Constitution of 1854. From 1825 until the Constitution of 1839, the head of state of Nicaragua was styled simply as Head of State (Jefe de Estado), and from 1839 to 1854 as Supreme Director (Supremo Director). The incumbent president, Daniel Ortega, has served as president since 2007. The Supreme Court of Nicaragua ruled that the constitutional ban on immediate reelection was unenforceable. In 2014, the legislature amended the constitution to allow the President to run for an unlimited number of five-year terms.
