The march scheduled for July 29 is scheduled to start from the 3 Masina district and end at the Buddha field in the N’djili commune in Kinshasa. More than a simple protest, this citizen mobilization aims to make the voice of the ECIDé party and its supporters heard, but also to make the Congolese population aware of the importance of transparency and electoral integrity.
The stakes of the walk:
This march by the ECIDé party raises many political and social issues in the Democratic Republic of Congo. On the one hand, it highlights the will of Martin Fayulu’s party to work for truly democratic and transparent elections, thus highlighting their commitment to democracy and good governance.
On the other hand, this march is also a way for the ECIDé party to make itself heard and to express the concerns of Congolese citizens who aspire to a reliable and transparent electoral system. It thus contributes to the strengthening of democratic debate and the mobilization of the living forces of Congolese society.
