This is how the Ortega and Murillo family network, which holds control of the Nicaraguan state, operates.

On July 27, 2026, Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega and Vice President Rosario Murillo issued Presidential Agreement 105-2026, appointing their son, Maurice Facundo Ortega Murillo, as the presidential representative and delegate for the promotion and development of sports.

This appointment is part of a broader structure in which the Ortega-Murillo family maintains direct control over various sectors of the Nicaraguan state. The move reflects a consistent pattern of consolidating government authority through the placement of family members in key administrative and representative roles.
