Fatshimetrie, October 25, 2024 – At the heart of the Maréchal military camp in the city of Kipushi, a crucial decision has been announced: the health center will be urgently renovated. This news, relayed by an official press release, comes after the visit of the Deputy Prime Minister of National Defense, Guy Kabombo, to this camp located in the capital of the territory of the same name, in the province of Haut-Katanga in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
The particular attention paid by the Deputy Prime Minister to the social conditions of the military, in the face of the extreme dilapidation of the real estate and health infrastructure, underlines the importance given to the health and well-being of the troops. Discussions with the camp staff highlighted essential needs on the professional and social levels, thus offering an opportunity for significant improvement for the entire military community.
This initiative was carried out in collaboration with the Governor of the province, Jacques Kyabula, the national deputies of Haut-Katanga and the commander of the 22nd military region, Eddy Kapend Irung. The trip of the Deputy Prime Minister, of which Kipushi was the fifth stop after visits to Kasumbalesa, Lubumbashi, Likasi and Kamina, demonstrates the constant commitment to the well-being of the armed forces in the region.
Everywhere he went, Guy Kabombo was honored with military greetings befitting his rank, while receiving warm cheers from the families of the soldiers. This recognition testifies to the confidence and gratitude of the military community for the efforts deployed to guarantee dignified living conditions and quality infrastructure.
After completing his visit to Kipushi, located only 30 km from Lubumbashi, the Deputy Prime Minister returned to the provincial capital the same day. This step demonstrates the government’s continued commitment to improving the living and working conditions of military personnel, thereby affirming the importance given to the health and well-being of those who serve with dedication and commitment in the armed forces.
