One of the prominent leaders of the Liberal Democratic Party of Japan, Fumio Kishida has won the race to become the upcoming Prime Minister of the nation.

These controversies have affected the career of Suga and he wished to step down from his position. As a result, a replacement was required to carry on the government. Kishida became the choice to run for the seat.
