Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez rewards his three millionth follower on Twitter with a new house

The giveaway also sparked criticism from some, and jokes by others.

Government critic Gustavo Coronel wrote on his blog that it was “intolerable”
for Mr Chavez to have rewarded someone in such a way simply for being a
supporter. He noted the home was built with government money, not Mr
Chavez’s money, and asked how the president dared to dole it out on the
basis of political support.

“It’s about shamelessly giving charity to those who follow him,” Mr
Coronel wrote.

The satirical website El Chiguire Bipolar poked fun at the handout with a mock
news article saying that Chavez’s 2,999,999 other Twitters followers were
disappointed.

“Millions of the president’s followers complained at having received
nothing,” it said.
