Keiko Fujimori Visits Family Tombs and Vows Order Ahead of Election

On election day, Keño Fujimura, accompanied by her sister and daughters, visited the graves of her parents, offering pink roses and a national-color arrangement before heading to the polls. The family ritual included kneeling at their mother’s tomb and a brief prayer for her father, former president Alberto Fujimura. Following the ceremony, Keño spoke to the media, stressing a commitment to restore order and unite a divided nation.
Her campaign centers on a hard-line security agenda, including deploying soldiers to high-crime zones and expanding prison capacity. Critics note that her platform revives the strong-man image of her father, while her political future will depend on coalition-building in a newly bicameral Congress.
