Tony Cassius Bolamba: A promising candidate for the DRC presidency
In a recent statement, the former governor of Ecuador, Tony Cassius Bolamba, announced his candidacy for the presidency of the Democratic Republic of Congo in the next elections scheduled for December 2023. With his experience and his commitment to the Congolese people, Bolamba wishes to reconcile the country with himself and bring about real change.
Tony Cassius Bolamba made an impression during his tenure as Governor of Ecuador, by implementing participatory management and getting closer to the population. In particular, he showed great generosity by reducing his salary significantly in order to support the education of the children of his province. This action demonstrates its desire to put the well-being of the Congolese people at the heart of its concerns.
In his declaration of candidacy, Bolamba recognizes the efforts of outgoing President Félix Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo, while stressing that the human work is never perfect and that the responsibility for the current situation of the country cannot be attributed to a single person. As a responsible and committed statesman, Bolamba fully assumes his share of responsibility and offers his candidacy as an opportunity to heal the ills that afflict the Democratic Republic of Congo.
Among the main axes of its governance program, Bolamba highlights five essential areas for the development of the country: health, education, security, social and employment. He insists on the importance of equity and justice to promote real and sustainable development of the Congolese nation. His candidacy is not only aimed at a personal ambition, but is part of a collective approach aimed at restoring the Congo to its legitimate place in the world.
Bolamba calls on Congolese citizens to support his candidacy and to engage in his movement, the Alliance of Mobutists for the People and the Republic (AMPR), as well as in his association, the Movement for Congo (MOCO). It is also counting on collaboration with other associations, political parties and groups to materialize its program of change.
The candidacy of Tony Cassius Bolamba brings a breath of fresh air and hope to the Congolese political scene. His commitment to the people, his vision of balanced development and his desire to reconcile the nation make him a promising candidate. It remains to be seen how his candidacy will be received by the Congolese population and what impact it will have on the political future of the DRC
