As announced
last week by President Maduro, The Day
of Love and Loyalty to the Supreme Comandante Hugo Chávez and to the Fatherland,
December 8, has
been officially decreed by the government.
On December 8 last year, Chávez
announced on national cadena,
that he would be again traveling to Cuba for further treatment of his cancer.
He also anointed Maduro as his successor if “any situation should arise that
forces a new electoral process.”
The
decree exhorts the Venezuelan People to “honor with their thoughts and
actions” the work of Hugo Chávez. It also states that “Chávez achieved the
transformation of Venezuela, which was covered by the shadows of Capitalism 20
years ago, and gave birth to a Fatherland full of hope.”
Significantly, the municipal elections will also
be held on December 8. Last
week Maduro had declared that the People should express their loyalty and
love for Chávez by voting against the enemies the Fatherland who are sabotaging
the Revolution.
Electoral propaganda is prohibited by law during
elections day. However, according to El Universal, the decree states that on
December 8 commemorations “exalting Chavez´s Bolivarian thought and to express
the infinite love of the Venezuelan People for him” can be held.
