The presidential campaign of Félix Tshisekedi, candidate for his own succession in the presidential election next December, is in full swing. During a press briefing held recently in Kinshasa, François Muamba Tshishimbi, Coordinator of the Presidential Strategic Monitoring Council (CPVS), announced the establishment of the President’s campaign teams. This announcement marks an important step in the electoral race in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
During this press conference, several personalities spoke, including members of Équipe Forte, Félix Tshisekedi’s think tank and action group. Dr Kabanda, Minister to the President of the Republic, Pr Eberande Kolongele, Minister of Digital, Augustin Kabuya, Secretary General of the UDPS, André Wameso, Economic Advisor to the Head of State, and Pr Taylor Lubanga of the Presidency of the République were present to share the latest news from the campaign.
François Muamba stressed that Félix Tshisekedi’s campaign teams will be deployed gradually throughout the country, from regions to provinces, including territories and cities. This strategy aims to cover the entire Congolese territory and mobilize voters to support the candidacy of the outgoing President.
The Strong Team Coordinator also reaffirmed President Tshisekedi’s commitment to inclusive, transparent and credible elections. Since taking office, Félix Tshisekedi has committed to consolidating the young democracy of the DRC by respecting electoral cycles and guaranteeing free and fair elections.
In addition to the announcement of the campaign teams, François Muamba spoke of the achievements of Félix Tshisekedi during his current mandate. He highlighted significant progress in the economic, financial, social, cultural, defense, diplomacy and security sectors. President Tshisekedi wishes to discuss these achievements and present his vision for the future of the Congolese nation during the official opening of the electoral campaign.
This announcement marks an important turning point in the presidential campaign in the DRC. Félix Tshisekedi relies on his Strong Team to mobilize voters and defend his record during his first term. The coming months promise to be intense and exciting for Congolese politics, as the population prepares to choose their future leader.
Ultimately, it is up to the Congolese people to decide who will lead the country for the next few years. Félix Tshisekedi’s presidential campaign is underway, and it remains to be seen whether the momentum he has created will translate into popular support that will allow him to win a second term as leader of the Democratic Republic of Congo.
