**North Kivu MPs in search of peace: Jacquemin Shabani at the center of concerns**
In the troubled region of North Kivu in the Democratic Republic of Congo, MPs recently launched a new call for peace during a plea in Kinshasa. Faced with the resurgence of violence perpetrated by armed groups such as the M23 and the ADF, these political representatives met with the Minister of the Interior, Jacquemin Shabani, to explain the alarming situation prevailing in their province.
During this meeting, the MPs made a clear assessment of the security challenges facing North Kivu. Between the repeated violations of the ceasefire by the M23 and the atrocities committed by the ADF, the local population is plunged into a climate of permanent terror and insecurity. Faced with this critical situation, parliamentarians called on the Congolese government to intensify military actions on the ground in order to restore peace and stability in the region.
Led by Jacquemin Shabani, the deputies also called for a national mobilization to recover territories under the control of armed groups and reaffirm the authority of the State in areas affected by conflict. They stressed the urgency of declaring North Kivu a disaster province to allow for increased mobilization of resources and efforts to meet the needs of vulnerable populations.
For several years, North Kivu has been the scene of recurring violence, particularly with the activism of the M23, which continues to defy government authorities despite attempts to neutralize it. The ADF, another armed group with barbaric actions, also terrorizes local populations, particularly in the regions of Beni, Lubero and Ituri.
Despite the military operations carried out to counter these threats, the situation remains worrying and the population continues to suffer from abuses and forced displacements. Faced with this bleak picture, the deputies of North Kivu expressed their determination to work for the return of peace and requested the support and commitment of the government to put an end to this spiral of violence and instability.
In conclusion, the quest for peace and security in North Kivu remains a major challenge for the Democratic Republic of Congo. The combined efforts of the political authorities, the security forces and the international community are essential to establish a climate of trust and stability in this region ravaged by armed conflicts. Jacquemin Shabani and the deputies of North Kivu launched an urgent call for action, because only a collective and determined response will put an end to the suffering of the populations and rebuild a peaceful and prosperous future for all.
