Abductions: a growing reality in Kinshasa
The editorial staff of CONGOPROFOND.NET conducted a survey among the inhabitants of Kinshasa and found that many cases of kidnappings had been reported in recent times. A citizen, Marcel Muamba, testifies: “My cousin was kidnapped by armed men aboard a taxi and held hostage for three days. His release was obtained after the payment of a ransom of $ 500 by Mobile money “. Many other similar testimonies were collected, fueling fear and anxiety in the population.
The inefficiency of the authorities and the search for solutions
Although the police have succeeded in arresting a group of criminals responsible for the kidnappings, the population considers their work ineffective as the cases continue to increase. This feeling of powerlessness leaves the population on their own, living in constant fear of being the next victim. Faced with this situation, the population calls on the Ministers of the Interior, both at national and provincial level, to take drastic measures to stem this scourge.
The climate of mistrust that reigns in Kinshasa
Distrust has grown in the Congolese capital, where it has become difficult to identify the taxis involved in the kidnappings. Both the drivers and the customers have become suspicious, creating an atmosphere of permanent tension. This situation also has an impact on taxi drivers, who see their livelihood threatened by this generalized psychosis.
Conclusion :
Kidnappings in Kinshasa continue to sow fear and anxiety among the population. Despite police efforts to arrest the criminals, the cases persist, fueling the psychosis that reigns in the Congolese capital. It is becoming more than necessary for the competent authorities to take drastic measures to put an end to this situation, so that the inhabitants of Kinshasa can regain a sense of security and tranquility
