Kinshasa, August 9, 2024 (ACP).- At the heart of the incessant struggle to guarantee public safety and health, the Communal Council of N’djili, located in the east of Kinshasa in the Democratic Republic of Congo, recently took action decisive measures during a handover and recovery ceremony between the age and definitive offices.
Max Abata Matiti, newly elected president of the final office, underlined the capital importance of the fight against insecurity and unsanitary conditions as the main pillars of their mandate. He stressed that these scourges deeply affect the city of Kinshasa and more particularly the commune of N’djili, affecting its entire population.
Addressing the issue of insecurity, he stressed that it constitutes a major challenge which requires immediate and concerted action. No one is spared from this complex issue, and it is imperative to treat it seriously and with commitment.
Furthermore, Max Abata informed the residents of N’djili that their election as municipal councilors gave birth to a new governance structure within the municipality.

The Municipal Council is responsible for deliberating on essential questions before transmitting them to the Executive Council of the municipality, thus ensuring participatory and informed governance.
This paradigm shift was welcomed by Dauphin Diyambuka, municipal councilor of N’djili, who expressed his confidence in the new team and called for effective collaboration for the best interests of the municipality.
