Doubtful. Putin for example has been in power for decades. Stalin ruled Russia with an iron fist for the rest of his natural life after rising to power. Unless they're overthrown, that's what dictators do. That's the whole point of dictatorships, to make the leaders the new kings.
There's nothing stopping that dude from suspending elections and just ruling indefinitely.
