Corruption and Nepotism in Venezuela’s Housing Sector Exposed Through Minister Ricardo Molina’s Actions

I know the individual shown in the picture well. His name is Ricardo Molina. He is the last Minister of Housing appointed by Hugo Chavez. He is a forestry engineer, graduated from ULA. He is the son of Manuel Isidro Molina, a distinguished and honest Venezuelan whom I learned to respect, even though he is a communist. He is one of those individuals who, while professing absolute loyalty to Chavez’s socialism, lives like a king and is probably involved in more than one shady deal. Since his appointment, he has already abused his position, incorporating his wife into public roles for which she, like him, is not qualified. He is the brother of Lenin Molina, another individual with questionable credentials, who has also benefited from the Chavista revolution. He is also the brother of Fidelina Molina, yet another person who has profited from her position in Chavismo.
