The Games of La Francophonie are fast approaching and the National Committee of the 9th Games of La Francophonie (CNJF) is multiplying initiatives to raise public awareness of the event to be held in Kinshasa in a month. The latest: a local awareness campaign organized in the Ndjili commune. Eric Mpoy, head of events at the CNJF, explains that the objective is to involve everyone in the event.
“It is the atmosphere that announces the colors of the Games that we are now expecting in a few days. It is also an opportunity to launch our campaign which consists in popularizing the Games of La Francophonie by involving everyone”, specifies he.
Fun activities such as music, dances, choreography and acrobatics were organized along Lumumba Boulevard in the Tshangu district as part of peripheral entertainment. The question and answer game also took place and allowed participants to win polo shirts and caps for the IX Games of La Francophonie.
Peripheral events have already taken place at the Huilerie roundabout, in the municipality of Kinshasa and at the UPN. However, due to the fragile security situation in certain regions of the country, the holding of this event is the subject of many concerns, even if it remains for the moment maintained for July 28 to August 6, 2023.
