Maduro celebrates millionth home

President Nicolas Maduro celebrated on Wednesday the delivery of the final home in the current phase of the Venezuelan Grand Housing Mission, which aimed to build 1 million homes for the Venezuelan people. This milestone was reached as the latest batch of apartments were delivered in the central state of Aragua on Wednesday. In 2015 alone, Caracas dedicated around $4.5 billion to accelerate the construction of over 326,000 homes to reach the 1 million landmark.
