It is crucial to shed light on the injustices taking place in the Salongo neighborhood. Despite the presence of four electric cabins, a large part of the population remains plunged in darkness, victims of fraudulent practices orchestrated by greedy local actors.
At the heart of this scandal are the managers of the CVS Kinshasa center, accomplices of local connection teams and commercial agents, who operate a lucrative black market in single departures. This illegal activity deprives the majority of residents of their right to stable electricity, leaving only a privileged few to benefit from this essential service.
The figures reveal the extent of the damage inflicted on the electricity company SNEL, deprived of millions of dollars due to these malicious practices. The alleged complicity of certain local figures, such as Mr. SEM Lusinga, underlines the urgency of a thorough investigation to put an end to this corruption.
The residents of Salongo, powerless witnesses to this situation, are demanding justice and transparency. It is essential that the authorities take drastic measures to put an end to these abuses and restore citizens’ confidence in public services.
The fight against corruption and embezzlement requires collective mobilization to guarantee fair and dignified treatment for all. It is time to shed light on these obscure practices and reaffirm the values of integrity and accountability at the heart of public service management.
Together, let us commit to fighting corruption and protecting the fundamental rights of every citizen, in order to build a more just and equitable future for all.
