NICARAGUA TURNS OFF RADIO MARIA! Ongoing and Harsh Christians Persecutions by Sandinista president Ortega
by Fabio Giuseppe C. Carisio
«It is the first time in our history that a Radio Maria station has been turned off. It had never happened even in Russia.”
With these words Father Livio Fanzaga, director of Radio Maria, a few hours ago during the daily broadcast Christian Reading of the Chronicle and History, announced with bitterness and sadness the shutdown of the Marian Catholic broadcaster in Nicaragua where persecutions against the Christians of President Daniel Ortega.
This is a repressive gesture of unprecedented gravity towards the most listened to Christian radio station in the world.
«Radio Maria Nicaragua has been shut down and the radio has lost its legal personality. RM has been active in Nicaragua for 24 years and has been closed» reads the statement published by Radio Maria Italy, where the international project of the association was born, present today in the 5 continents with affiliated but independent radio stations and all directed by a Catholic priest: 32 in Europe, 25 in the Americas, 27 in Africa, 11 in Asia and Oceania
The government of Nicaragua has canceled the legal status of the Radio María association and 12 other non-profit organizations, amid tensions between the executive headed by Sandinista Daniel Ortega and the Catholic Church.
Nicaragua: Bishop Álvarez sentenced to 26 years’ Imprisonment
The current president of the Republic of Nicaragua, having already been president from 10 January 1985 to 25 April 1990, during the Sandinista revolution; He took office on January 10, 2007. Leader of the Sandinista National Liberation Front, he was a deputy in the National Assembly of Nicaragua.
His political movement had become sadly known for having boycotted the peaceful visit of Pope Saint John Paul II on 6 March 1983 with furious protests, obscuring his homily during the Holy Mass in the square in front of hundreds of thousands of believers by turning off the loudspeakers. Just like today the Radio Maria repeaters were turned off!
The measure comes after the station announced the reduction of its programming hours, from 24 to 14 hours, following the freezing of its two bank accounts, which prevented it from receiving donations.
The radio was also forced to include in its programming the official report that the vice president of Nicaragua, Rosario Murillo, offers to the population from Monday to Friday.

This story follows the arrest and humiliation of the bishop of Matagalpa Mons. Rolando Álvarez, Apostolic Administrator of the Diocese of Estelí, sentenced to 26 years as a “traitor of the homeland” and guilty of “conspiracy to threaten national integrity and spread false news through information and communication technologies to the detriment of the State and Nicaraguan society.”
Another 14 priests were arrested amid international silence. The Government’s animosity is clear: last December 27, Vice President Rosario Murillo called the country’s Catholic priests and bishops “devils” during a public speech.
The director of Radio Maria promised that there will be a reaction from the broadcaster to restore radio broadcasts but instead of focusing on this tragic attack on freedom of information and clear violation of human rights he concentrated on international events and, allowing himself to be diverted from his now inveterate and obsessive Russophobia, gave much prominence to the mysterious missile attack on the pediatric hospital in Kiev attributed by Ukraine to Russia which returned all accusations to the sender, defining it as the consequence of an accident caused by an anti-missile rocket from defense systems of the Ukrainian army.
After calling for world peace, the elderly priest severely contested the dialogue trips made by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban to Russia and China precisely to seek a truce for the conflict in Ukraine in his capacity as rotating president of the Union European. In this he imitated the EU leaders who delegitimized this difficult mission to continue supporting the NATO strategy aimed at speculating on the Arms Lobby and a world war.
Daniel Ortega’s Criminal Profile
In June 2018, Amnesty International and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights of the Organization of American States reported that Ortega had engaged in a violent campaign of oppression against protesters in response to the 2018 anti-Ortega protests in Nicaragua. Violent repression during the 2018 protests and subsequent decline in civil liberties led to massive waves of migration to Costa Rica, with more than 30,000 Nicaraguans applying for asylum in that neighboring country.
During the first half of 2022, many repressive acts and arrests of members of the Catholic Church of Nicaragua were recorded, including Bishop Rolando José Álvarez, taken at night by the Nicaraguan National Police and photographed on his knees with his hands raised; the affair has sparked many voices of protest and concern including that of the Secretary General of the United Nations António Guterres who was defined by the spokesperson Farhan Haq as: very concerned about the serious obstruction of the democratic and civic space in Nicaragua and the recent actions against civil society organizations, including those of the Catholic Church.
On August 21, 2022, Pope Francis publicly took a stand against the situation, hoping that through dialogue we can achieve a “peaceful and respectful” coexistence in Nicaragua. Ortega’s government accuses the Catholic Church of complicity in actions aimed at organizing a coup against it.
According to the Reagan administration, in 1984 Daniel Ortega gave refuge for several months to Colombian drug kingpin Pablo Escobar, who was fleeing his country after he had ordered the killing of Justice Minister Rodrigo Lara Bonilla. At the same time, Escobar received Ortega’s approval to fly planes loaded with cocaine from Nicaragua to the United States of America and, in exchange, Ortega and the Sandinista junta would receive huge payments from the drug trafficker.
The DEA managed to obtain from the pilot, drug trafficker and informant Barry Seal (later murdered) some photographs depicting Escobar and officials of the Nicaraguan Ministry of the Interior loading cocaine onto a plane at Managua airport, demonstrating the close link between the Sandinista regime and Colombian narcos.

In 2010 WikiLeaks published files transmitted by the American embassy in Managua (subsequently published by the Spanish newspaper El País) in which it was alleged that the President was involved with drug traffickers. These claims were subsequently confirmed by some turncoats.
In 1998 he was accused of rape by his wife’s daughter Zoilamérica Narváez,[99] who she stated had systematically abused her since 1979 when she was 9 years old. Daniel Ortega has denied the allegations. The criminal proceedings did not take place as Daniel Ortega benefited from parliamentary immunity.
