The electrical situation of Zulia is dramatic, as well as in the rest of the country, and also with extreme rigor in the states Táchira, Nueva Esparta, Anzoátegui, Monagas, Bolívar, Apure, Amazonas, and of course, it is a crisis that they tried at of the sacrifice of the mentioned entities, to defer it in Carabobo, Aragua, Vargas and the capital of the Republic, until the cable ended up melting and we see that the blackouts, which are now recurrent in Caracas itself, reached the Caracas Metro and even to the international airport "Simón Bolívar" in Maiquetía.
For several years, specifically since 2015 and based on their research on the country's electricity situation, the Venezuelan College of Engineers (CIV) had been warning of the collapse that the destruction of the aforementioned system in Maracaibo and adjacent areas of the Zulia capital would mean. .
In fact, in that report, it was mentioned that of nine thermoelectric plants nationwide, three of them corresponded to Zulia, to be more exact, they referred to the plants of Termozulia, Rafael Urdaneta and Ramón Laguna (in this there was a fire in 2017), a maintenance situation that, due to not being met in accordance with the technical and professional requirements suggested, triggered the multiplication of the electricity deficit, and obviously, the abandonment of the rest of the energy facilities, will influence the Gallo Verde substation originate a path explosion that ended up aggravating the electricity supply situation in the noble and hard-working Maracucha region, whose consequences have been fatal for its inhabitants, not only by the obstruction, of the by themselves, affected economic, academic and social activities, but because Zulia is the warmest state in Venezuela, which is why it becomes inhuman to spend and hours without electricity, especially if you can not use the air conditioners, and at least the terrible water service we have in the country.
Therefore, the words of the president of the Electric Corporation (Corpoelec) become bureaucratic slop. First, because when the serious deterioration of the energy supply began, through constant blackouts, as well as the various alert statements made by the different authorities in the region, Luis Motta Domínguez, as the highest authority in the electricity industry, had semantics so laughable excuses ranging from the infiltration of an iguana, through the phenomenon of "El Niño", to recurrent sabotage. Second, because after a senior official of the Zulia governorship, in an unusual way he blamed one of the blackouts on the existence of the sun, when he dared to say: It is an equinox phenomenon. Is that we are very close to the sun and when there is cold in the world here there is heat, now is that the president of Corpoelec recognizes the crisis, which shows that all his previous excuses before the electrical problem were lies.
And before this set of official statements issued by Madurist officials and Motta Dominguez himself, we asked the latter what value can his word have before the public, if you have recognized yourself, words more, words less, not only that you ignored the warnings of the specialists and the people of Zulia, but also dressed in the clothes of cynicism, pretend that the town is subjected to more sacrifices, without a minimum of state responsibility?
