Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez rewards three millionth follower on Twitter with a new house
A young woman in Venezuela has been rewarded with a new home by President Hugo Chavez for becoming his three millionth follower on Twitter.
She said there were about 200 families receiving public housing in her area on Margarita Island. Mr Chavez congratulated Valdivieso in a message on Monday when he said she had become his three millionth follower. His regional campaign manager, Carlos Mata Figueroa, announced later that she would receive the home. Mr Chavez's government has been building new public housing complexes ahead of the country's Oct. 7 presidential election. Miss Valdivieso called Mr Chavez "the best president" and gushed: "I woke up knowing that is the happiest day of my life!" Posted by: tipper 2012-06-02 |
