Yesterday, on January 13, thousands of motorcyclists and transport workers formed a colorful protest convoy through the streets of Caracas. Their message: bring back President Nicolas Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, who were forcibly detained by the U.S. on January 3. 🏍️🇻🇪
The demonstration wove through key avenues, with honking horns and banners reading "Maduro Resiste" and "Hands Off Our President." At the heart of the rally, the president’s son, Nicolas Maduro Guerra, shared a video message from his parents. He said they remain strong and trust in Acting President Delcy Rodriguez to steer the government through this crisis.
For many participants, the convoy was more than a show of support—it was a call for national unity. "We won't stop until our leader comes home," shouted one bus driver. 🚍💪
As the protest rolled on, social media lit up with videos of the convoy weaving through Caracas landmarks. Young Venezuelans joined in, tweeting their solidarity with #BringBackMaduro and #CaracasConvoy.
This unfolding story shows how grassroots movements can shape the national conversation. Stay tuned for updates as events continue to develop.
