November 4, 2018
Caracas, Nov 4 (EFE) .- The governor of Zulia state, Omar Prieto, said that the electricity problem that affected that region was "overcome", that it was plunged into blackouts for months and that it was declared in emergency last July. for the Parliament, with an opposition majority.
"I can say with great pride today, overcoming the electrical issue," he said in an interview recorded and aired today by the private channel Televen.
Despite this, the local authority did not rule out that there may be "other attacks on the system" or "any possibility of failure due to the climate issue".
These were some of the reasons that the Government of Nicolás Maduro offered to explain the constant electrical failures in that state.
However, Prieto insisted that "that scheme that we have passed since February, since December (...), today we can say, we achieved it".
Zulia, a region rich in oil and the most populated of Venezuela, was declared in emergency last July by the Parliament due to the deterioration of public services, which generally affect the whole country, but have been reflected more strongly in this state.
In Zulia, also bordering Colombia, communities have denounced that they spend weeks and even months without getting water, and the governor said that the authorities are currently working on a plan to "repower" the pumping stations. of water.

Zulia's Chavista governor is legendary when it comes to chutzpah. Every electrical outage is due to either A. Sabotage, B. Iguanas fornicating on transformers, or C. Sun too close to Venezuela, and NOT due to Chavista malfeasance. And now, after the main corroded electrical conduit has been replaced (no maintenance for 18 years), he can proudly proclaim that after months without power, Zulia is back to normal. If by normal we assume that no running water for over a year and 6 hours of power in the middle of the night is normal.
