Title: Félix Tshisekedi facing the media: A key point of his electoral campaign
Introduction:
President Félix Tshisekedi, a candidate for his own succession, recently spoke to the media as part of the electoral campaign. The broadcast, organized by the Superior Audiovisual and Communication Council (CSAC), allowed the candidate to present his vision of governance for a possible second term. This initiative aims to ensure fairness and equality in the treatment of candidates, and to avoid the mistakes of the past. Let’s return to this key event in political news in the DRC.
Félix Tshisekedi’s governance program:
During his speech, President Félix Tshisekedi took 90 minutes to outline the broad outlines of his governance program if he were re-elected. He addressed various themes such as national politics, territorial administration and institutional reforms, justice and human rights, national security and social stability, economic strategies and sustainable development, as well as diplomacy and promotion of women and youth.
Compliance with the legal requirement:
The presence of Félix Tshisekedi before the media meets the legal requirement provided for by Organic Law No. 11/001 of January 10, 2011 relating to the composition, attributions and functioning of the High Council for Audiovisual and Communication. This law aims to guarantee fairness in the broadcasting of presidential candidates’ broadcasts, and to avoid any favoritism or disorder in the electoral process.
Equity and learning about democracy:
The organization of such broadcasts by the CSAC also aims to promote greater fairness in the treatment of candidates and to encourage learning about democracy. By avoiding media cacophony and giving each candidate equal time to present their vision, CSAC contributes to establishing a climate of transparency and equality in the electoral process.
Conclusion:
Félix Tshisekedi’s intervention in front of the media as part of his electoral campaign is a key current event in the DRC. This demonstrates the importance given to transparency and fairness in the electoral process. By outlining his governance program, the president hopes to convince voters to grant him a second term. However, only the outcome of the elections will determine whether his proposals resonated with the Congolese population.
