Nicolás Maduro has celebrated in style the 10 years since his controversial April 2013 electoral victory over opposition candidate Henrique Capriles, just six weeks after the death of Hugo Chávez. The "people's president" did not hesitate to demonstrate his euphoria before the entire staff of the Bolivarian revolution during the launch of the Expo-Gobierno "Ten years of popular victory", despite starring in one of the worst administrative performances in history from Latin America.
"Ten years of victories, of resistance and now we are going to the rebirth of the homeland", harangued the Bolivarian boss during the celebration, a message that he had already advanced through his social networks to encourage the audience: "The achievements that we have added Throughout these 10 years of struggle they have been extraordinary. Nothing and no one will stop us!"
"It has been worth it, what we have done is lay the foundations to see the prosperity of a better society, of equals, face to face. Today we are stronger than yesterday," said Maduro, who as usual drew a society that only exists in their propaganda.
Chávez's successor emphasized the unity of the revolutionaries, precisely when he has just unleashed an anti-corruption purge that hides an internal struggle for power. "I can tell you that I feel proud of Venezuela, of the history we are writing, especially of the history that is yet to be written," argued the so-called "leader of victories" by revolutionary propaganda.
In the last few hours, images of the appearance in court of Colombian tycoon Álvaro Pulido, partner of the famous Alex Saab, whom the former Venezuelan prosecutor's office considers Maduro's front man, have been made public. Dressed in orange, who was the main international financial operator of the revolution together with his friend Saab, today pending trial in Miami, has joined a select list of fifty senior leaders, Boliburgues businessmen, judges and soldiers, several of them they are from the closest team of former vice president Tareck El Aissami, an oil czar forced to resign over the scandal.
Maduro assured during his speech that the Anti-Corruption Police (belonging to the Bolivarian Intelligence Service) has recovered 500 vehicles during the operation. Before his governors, the revolutionary chief assured that he knows everything about them, including what they eat. "! Superbigote's super team!", he was encouraged to exclaim in his television intervention.
"Let the ministers get their act together and deliver top quality results," Maduro scolded those present with the intention that they abandon "minimalism" and do more for the people of Venezuela.
The Chavista president took advantage of the anniversary of the election that led him to the presidency to vindicate the then president of the National Electoral Council (CNE), Tibisay Lucena, who died this week when he held the Higher Education portfolio. At that time, Capriles denounced electoral irregularities that Lucena, a close collaborator of Maduro for 14 years, did not address.
