Introduction :
The Alliance of Progressive Congolese (ACP) recently announced its decision to support the candidacy of Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo in the next presidential election in the Democratic Republic of Congo. This announcement was made during the party’s Extraordinary Congress, in the presence of several political figures, including Augustin Kabuya, leader of the presidential party. This decision underlines the ACP’s appreciation for the reforms carried out by Tshisekedi since his accession to the presidency and its positive impact on the life of institutions and the Congolese.
Legitimate loyalty to Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo:

He expressed the legitimate loyalty of the ACP to the outgoing president and called on party activists to remain mobilized to ensure his candidacy triumphs. The ACP thus formalized the candidacy of Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo as the sole representative of their party in the December 2023 elections.
The achievements of Tshisekedi’s presidency:
Gentiny Ngobila Mbaka also highlighted the achievements of President Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo since his accession to power, highlighting in particular the quadrupling of the national budget in four years, thus allowing the financing of programs in the 145 territories of the country as well as the construction and renovation of basic infrastructure. In terms of infrastructure, he mentioned the construction of trans-communal roads, the development of public rights-of-way and public lighting in the capital Kinshasa.
The Sacred Union in support of Tshisekedi:
The participation of Augustin Kabuya, leader of the presidential party, in the ACP Congress testifies to the conviviality and unity within the Sacred Union, the political platform of President Félix Tshisekedi. Despite the challenges inherent to any political organization, the Union Sacrée is strengthening its efforts on the ground to ensure the re-election of Tshisekedi.
Conclusion :
Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi Tshilombo will therefore be the candidate supported by the ACP in the December 2023 presidential election in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

With the support of the ACP and the Union Sacrée, Tshisekedi continues his campaign for his re-election as head of the country.
