Fatshimetrie, September 6, 2024 – Generosity has appeared in the central market of Kananga, in the heart of Kasai-Central in the Democratic Republic of Congo. It was with enthusiasm that the market management welcomed a donation of plastic chairs, office tables and office supplies offered by Senator Jean Tshisekedi Kabasele. This initiative generated great satisfaction among the beneficiaries, thus testifying to the positive impact of the aid provided.
The central market attendant, Mrs. Marie Claude Kanku Katshiama, welcomed this generous gesture by highlighting the importance of this equipment for the smooth running of commercial activities within the market. In addition to the chairs and tables, the senator also provided the market butcher’s shop with two refrigerators, an essential support to guarantee the quality and safety of the food products sold.
Furthermore, in order to raise awareness among sellers and buyers about the preventive measures against the Mpox epidemic, the market attendant recalled the importance of respecting barrier gestures. Wearing a mask, washing hands frequently, avoiding physical contact and maintaining a safe distance are essential actions to combat the spread of the disease.
The reaction of the merchants was not long in coming, expressing their gratitude to the senator for his valuable support. Ms. Bipendu Kalumba highlighted the positive impact of this intervention on the daily lives of traders, thus helping to improve working conditions and guarantee health security within the market.
In these difficult times, when solidarity and mutual aid are more necessary than ever, this act of generosity by Senator Jean Tshisekedi Kabasele brings a breath of optimism and support to the community of the central market of Kananga. Let us hope that this initiative will serve as an example and encourage others to make their contribution for the collective well-being.
