Life
Edmundo Paguaga Irías was a member of the Partido Conservador Republicano and since the end of the 1960s a member of parliament, he brought the request to rename Ciudad Segovia in Ocotal .
In 1971 Fernando Bernabé Agüero Rocha and Anastasio Somoza Debayle signed the Pacto Kupia Kumi (language of the Miskito : one heart ). The pact split the Partido Conservador . Pedro Chamorro 's Unión Democrática de Liberación (UDEL) belonged to the negative group . When Fernando Bernabé Agüero Rocha left the government junta on March 1, 1973, Edmundo Paguaga Irías took over his function. This entry into the pact was named in the Nicaraguan vernacular "pata de gallina", chicken foot, after a popular dish. This was an allusion to the fact that Anastasio Somoza Debayle would have fully incorporated the Chicken Partido Conservador . Edmundo Paguaga Irías was criticized for this step by Pedro Chamorro because he had followed the siren song .
In August 1974 there were presidential elections. Edmundo Paguaga Irías was the candidate of the Partido Conservador Republicano . Anastasio Somoza Debayle was his party's candidate. The Partido Liberal Nacionalista received 748,985 votes out of 815,758.
