He insists on the importance of equity and justice to hope for a real development of the country. His candidacy is intended to be a desire to restore unity, equity, justice and peace, necessary for the prosperity of the DRC.
The call for unity and patriotism:
Bolamba appeals to the patriotic, civic and republican momentum of his fellow citizens to support his candidacy. He underlines his attachment to the country and its values, as well as his determination to stop the daily deterioration of Congolese unity. He calls for collaboration with other associations, political parties or groups in order to concretize his program of governance and to restore the Congo to its legitimate place in the world.
Conclusion :
Tony Cassius Bolamba presents himself as a committed and determined candidate to reconcile the Congo with itself and to restore the country to its full potential. His experience as governor and his proximity to the population make him a promising choice for the next presidential elections in December 2023. It remains to be seen how his candidacy will be received and what his strategy will be to convince Congolese voters.
