The inspectors of Primary, Secondary and Technical Education (EPST) in the province of Tshopo have threatened to boycott the organization of the practical tests of the State Examination from May 15, in sign of protest against the amount of the bonus offered to them. According to their spokesperson, the provincial chief inspector, Grégoire Muka Kalenga, offers them the same amount as last year, while the number of finalist students and the participation fees have increased significantly this year.
For his part, Grégoire Muka Kalenga maintains that the amount to be paid had been fixed long before by the provincial committee of the EPST, and invites the inspectors to respect the claim procedure while working while it takes its course.
In parallel with this event, the political news is also in turmoil in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The Congolese opposition is organizing a big march to save the electoral process, while for their part, the FNI party and the UNC have reached an agreement for the 2023 elections, thus strengthening the political position of the party in Ituri and elsewhere.
However, tensions continue to grow between the opposition and the CENI on the electoral roll, and the sacred union of the nation is setting up a digital army to defend its image and its political cadres. In the Congolese political landscape, Lisanga Bonganga is an influential figure through his versatility in the service of stability.
In terms of economic development, the Head of Government has drawn up the main guidelines for the modernization of ports in the DRC, while the President of the Republic, Félix Tshisekedi, reaffirms his desire to impose peace in the east of the DRC, despite the terrorist attacks of the Rwandan-backed M23. Finally, the DRC and Indonesia are working together to modernize the Congolese army, but the country still faces a dilemma between the economic advantages and the political and security stakes in its relations with the EAC
