# Yoshihide Suga

> He held the job longer than anyone in Japanese history — Chief Cabinet Secretary for eight years — then took the top office itself for just one. Suga's year as prime minister was defined by pandemic management and sliding approval, ending with a decision not to seek re-election before the party could push him out.

## Bio

Born to strawberry farmers in rural Akita Prefecture on 6 December 1948, Suga left for Tokyo after high school and worked his way through Hosei University. He became an aide to Representative Hikosaburo Okonogi in 1975, then won a seat on the Yokohama Municipal Assembly in 1987 and entered the House of Representatives in 1996. A close ally of Shinzo Abe, he served briefly as Minister for Internal Affairs and Communications in 2006, then returned in 2012 as Chief Cabinet Secretary — a role he held for the entirety of Abe's second term. When Abe resigned in September 2020 due to health concerns, Suga was elected to succeed him. His premiership oversaw Japan's vaccine rollout, the delayed Tokyo Olympics, and a carbon neutrality pledge, but public dissatisfaction with pandemic handling eroded his support. On 3 September 2021, facing party hesitancy ahead of the general election, he announced he would not seek re-election. He left office on 4 October 2021, served as LDP vice president from 2024 to 2025, and retired in February 2026.
