The presidium of the Sacred Union convenes a consultation meeting crucial for the political future of the Congolese nation. Scheduled for this evening of Friday May 31, 2024, this meeting is of capital importance in a context of tensions within the presidential coalition.
The convening of this meeting comes from the coordinator of the parliamentary majority, the deputy Augustin Kabuya Tshilumba, who took care to specify that only the leaders of the political groupings who are members of the Sacred Union in the National Assembly are invited. Each grouping can only be represented by one person, thus emphasizing the importance of the decisions that could result from it.
This meeting takes place in a context of strong tensions caused by the recent appointment of the government team led by Judith Suminwa. Discordant voices were raised within the presidential coalition, suggesting cracks within the Sacred Union. Rumors of a petition aimed at dismissing the government in place are already circulating, suggesting political turmoil to come.
The outcome of this consultation meeting proves crucial for the future of the presidential coalition and by extension, for the political stability of the country. The decisions that emanate from it could reshape the Congolese political landscape and have major repercussions on the governance in place.
Congolese voters and the international community are closely watching the unfolding of these political events which could shape the country’s democratic future. It is therefore imperative that the political actors present demonstrate responsibility and wisdom to preserve unity within the Sacred Union and guarantee the political and institutional stability of the Congo.
