The provisional results for the national and provincial legislative elections as well as the municipal election in DR Congo will be published this Friday, January 12, 2024, according to sources close to the Independent National Electoral Commission (CENI). This historic event arouses a lot of anticipation and suspense, with many issues for the political future of the country.
The CENI is actively working to prepare for this important announcement, sending invitations to the various stakeholders in the electoral process to participate in this event. The publication of the provisional results will mark a crucial step in the democratic process in DR Congo.
Alongside this publication, the CENI is also looking into the question of sanctions to be applied to candidates who have committed electoral fraud and acts of vandalism. Exemplary sanctions will be considered and presented to the competent courts and tribunals, with the aim of guaranteeing the integrity of the electoral process and deterring any form of fraud.
The CENI office temporarily suspended a deliberation plenary, but it should resume its work in the coming days in order to respond to all the questions and concerns raised.
These elections in DR Congo are of capital importance for the political future of the country. Citizens eagerly await the results that will determine the composition of future legislative and municipal bodies. This step is crucial for the consolidation of democracy in DR Congo and the affirmation of popular will.
While waiting for the announcement of the provisional results, it is essential that all political actors and the population demonstrate patience, calm and serenity. It is also important that these elections take place in a transparent manner, with respect for democratic rules and the rights of each citizen.
The DR Congo is at a major turning point in its political history and the current elections are a decisive moment for the future of the country. It is essential that these elections are perceived as free, fair and transparent, in order to guarantee the confidence of the population and to strengthen the foundations of democracy in DR Congo.
Let us therefore remain attentive to the provisional results which will be published this Friday and hope that these elections will mark significant progress for the political stability and development of the country. The DR Congo needs solid governance and adequate legislative and municipal representation to meet the many challenges facing it. The Congolese people deserve strong and responsible democratic institutions.
