About this episode
Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega has won his fourth consecutive term in an election that many have called a “farce.” CNN International Correspondent Matt Rivers was denied entry when he tried to report on this pivotal moment, but he was still determined to tell the story. In this episode, Matt meets with exiles persecuted in neighboring Costa Rica and has clandestine phone calls with brave citizens in Nicaragua. They told him the same thing: Ortega will stop at nothing to hold on to power.
