Updated 10:47, 22-Apr-2019

A comedian with no political experience won a landslide victory in Ukraine's presidential election on Sunday, drawing congratulations from global leaders.

Volodymyr Zelensky, whose only previous political role was playing the president in a TV show, trounced incumbent Petro Poroshenko by taking 73 percent of the vote, according to exit polls.

Poroshenko garnered just 25.5 percent, losing to the 41-year-old comedian and actor throughout the country.

I still don't understand how a person who has zero administrative experience can be given the most important job of running a nation just because people like them. It's like asking a layman to do a doctor's job operating on patients just because he is attractive.
