Caracas enters 3rd day without electricity. Excuses galore from Chavismo!

October 23, 2018

Elías Rivas / October 23, 2018.- Campo Elías, Altos de Lídice, La Pastora, La Candelaria, are some sectors of Caracas that have been without light for more than three days.

This is reported by neighbors through Twitter, denouncing the discomfort to the Minister of Electric Energy, Luis Motta Domínguez.

"Good day we are without light, please someone to give us an answer what is happening. Without electric service from Sunday at 12 pm Main Avenue asylum Campo Elías, in front of the Caracas psychiatric hospital ", says @ Yohe2885.

The user, Roberto Ramírez, also echoes the complaint and says he has been without light for three days in Campo Elías street, Altos de ldice, La Pastora.

Similar situation is experienced in Paya, Suripa, Las Vegas and in the trinity, Baruta-Caracas industrial zone, Caricuao, as manifested through Twitter.

The sector Luis Hurtado de El Junquito also presents the same conditions since dawn on Tuesday, neighbors claim how a "power country" is "without public services on a regular and constant." "Power towards extreme misery", comments Fátima Soares, on Twitter.

In the Monsenor Arias sector and in the Mariche Ranges, the situation is more complex, both areas have been without power for six days, according to claims of those who reside in these areas. Coincide through Twitter in demanding the minister Luis Motta Domínguez to "fix the chaos." They ask for help, "this is not life," they add.

The newspaper Avance said that more than 15 sectors of the capital city of Mirandán have been affected by power failures since Monday. Communities such as La Matica, Barrio Miranda I and Los Alpes were dark from 3 in the morning until the end of Monday afternoon.

Sabotage again? Iguanas trained by the CIA? Sun too hot in Venezuela (but not in Colombia?) It appears that Caracas, which RARELY has power issues (that is where the Marxist elite live) has now run out of transformers, and the electrical grid (no updates in nearly 20 years) is collapsing, joining the rest of Venezuela with only 6 hours per day (on average) of electrical power.

Another Bolivarian Revolution win.
