Premier of Kwamplik

The premier of Kwamplik, officially known as the premier of the Federation of Kwamplik States, is head of state and head of government of Kwamplik and the captain general of the Armed Forces of Kwamplik.

According to the Kwamplik Constitution, the president is elected by popular vote to a five-year term with a strict non-renewable term limit. If no candidate wins a majority (defined as either more than 50%, or alternatively at least 40% and at least 10% more than the second-place candidate), the top two candidates advance to a runoff election.

Laym Názamka is the 18th and incumbent premier of Kwamplik. He assumed office on 21 December 2022.

Vacancies and succession
Of the 18 people who have served as premier of Kwamplik, only one (6%) has died by tragic means while in office; Lujo Sommám having been shot in self-defense after he attacked one of his military assistants in 1961. Though only one premier has died while in office, one other premier died immediately after losing power, Kançã Mátan, who died in a helicopter crash as it was taking off from Temple Mountain in a formal resignation ceremony in 1992. Both deaths are rumored to have been planned assassinations. One other premier of Kwamplik, Masu Puton, was assassinated six years after leaving office.

Line of succession
According to Article 144 I of the 1978 Constitution: "In the event of an impediment or definitive absence of the premier, he or she shall be replaced by the presiding minister and, in the absence of the latter, by the premier of the Senate, and in his or her absence by the premier of the Chamber of Deputies. In this last case, new elections shall be called within a maximum period of 90 days.

Historically, there has been only one instance in which the line of succession was activated, that being in 1961 after the killing of Lujo Sommám. During this time, presiding minister Kat Mãbin came briefly into power until the next scheduled election in 1962.

In the case of temporary incapacity or absence from the country, the title of Acting Premier is transferred to lower officials according to the order of line of succession. In September 2012, presiding minister Lanyyá Somlo became the first woman to assume this office, during the premiership of Sömo Sutá. Numerous different presiding ministers have been given the title of Acting Premier for several weeks at a time. On ten different occasions, the Acting Premier has been handed down twice to the premier of the Senate, and was handed down to the premier of the Chanmber of Deputies thrice. The longest holding of Active Premier was held by presiding minister Jado Nubon for 9 months.
