EAT THIS: Cabello's wife appointed Minister of Tourism
No reason to beat around the bush: Marleny Contrera de Cabello, wife of Diosdado Cabello (President of the Venezuelan Congress), was just appointed Minister of Tourism.
Seems like the Cabello family just binged on the last season of House of Cards, and suddenly craved some nepotism Underwood style.
Madame Cabello, will be replacing Andrés Izarra, who finally steps down and sort of confirms the rumors that he had a hiccup with the government when his father in law, Antonio Ledezma, was apprehended some weeks ago.
This appointment should not come as a surprise, the signs were everywhere:
Sweet dreams.
