Title: The crucial issues of public finance management in Congo Kinshasa
Introduction :
Public finance management is a crucial aspect for the proper functioning of a country. In Congo Kinshasa, the issue of public finance management has become a major concern since the arrival of Nicolas Kazadi at the Ministry of Finance. Budget overruns and late payment of civil servants’ salaries raise questions about the transparency and effectiveness of this management. In this article, we will look at the questions raised by Senator Doctor Laddy Yangotikala and the consequences of this management of public finances on the Congolese population.
A critical and worrying situation:
Senator Doctor Laddy Yangotikala recently sent a letter to the Senate office in which he highlights the critical situation of public finances since the arrival of Nicolas Kazadi. It highlights the budget overrun during the Francophonie games, as well as the delays in payment of civil servants’ salaries. According to him, this disastrous management directly affects the daily life of Congolese citizens.
Unanswered questions:
To obtain clarifications on this management of public finances, Senator Yangotikala asked several questions to Minister Nicolas Kazadi. He questions the reasons for the delay in the payment of civil servants’ salaries, the administrative burden in this sector, as well as the non-compliance with promises made to University Professors and Congo Airways. In addition, he asks for explanations on the budget overrun for the Francophonie games and on the unavailability of funds for the construction of road infrastructure in Kisangani.
Consequences for the Congolese population:
This failing management of public finances has a direct impact on the lives of the Congolese. Delays in paying civil servants’ salaries cause financial hardship for many families. In addition, the delays observed in the completion of projects and promises made by the government contribute to a lack of confidence among the population in the authorities. Therefore, it becomes essential to remedy this situation in order to improve the living conditions of Congolese citizens.

The management of public finances in Congo Kinshasa has become a crucial issue since the arrival of Nicolas Kazadi at the Ministry of Finance. Budget overruns and late payment of civil servants’ salaries raise many questions about the transparency and effectiveness of this management.
