The 100-day countdown, a traditional practice in the Congolese political landscape, continues to generate debate and expectations. Is this measure, often used to assess the proactivity and effectiveness of a newly established government, really relevant in a country like the DR Congo, which is facing immense and complex challenges?
Some political experts, claiming to be specialists in Monitoring and Evaluation, have come forward to call for an assessment of the first actions of the Suminwa Government, in accordance with this 100-day tradition. However, should we limit ourselves to this short period to assess the true impact of government actions?
Indeed, in a country the size of the DR Congo, marked by major issues and deep problems, it is essential to take the time to analyze the various challenges in depth and provide sustainable solutions. Rather than rushing to meet an arbitrary deadline, it is essential to conduct in-depth reflection and implement coherent and effective measures.
The Suminwa Government, aware of the complexity of the issues it faces, has opted for a pragmatic approach by developing a substantial budget project, submitted for approval by Parliament. This approach demonstrates a desire to propose lasting solutions, rather than one-off measures intended to meet a timing requirement.
It is essential to prioritize the quality and sustainability of government actions, rather than complying with arbitrarily established standards. Hastening slowly, as the Romans said, allows us to act thoughtfully and methodically, taking into account all the implications of our decisions.
Thus, rather than focusing on fictitious deadlines, it is essential to work in depth, underground, to develop public policies that meet the challenges facing the country. The Prime Minister’s Office is not a spectacle to be exhibited to the media, but a serious and professional workplace, where actions are prepared that will shape the future of the DR Congo.
In short, the search for sustainable and effective solutions must take precedence over timing considerations. The real challenge for the Congolese Government is to provide concrete answers to the country’s problems, taking the time needed to study, analyze and act in a relevant manner. Only sustained efforts and a comprehensive approach will be able to overcome current challenges and ensure a better future for all Congolese citizens.
