At the heart of the challenges of good governance in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), the action of the General Inspectorate of Finance (IGF) arouses the admiration and approval of the national deputy Éric Tshikuma. During an international conference dedicated to the theme of whistleblowers in Kinshasa, Éric Tshikuma praised the significant progress of the IGF in the fight against corruption and the promotion of transparency in public administration.
The recognition of the performance of the IGF by Éric Tshikuma underlines the crucial importance of control and regulatory bodies in consolidating a culture of probity and accountability within Congolese institutions. Indeed, the control missions carried out by the IGF under the enlightened leadership of Jules Alingete have made it possible to uncover corrupt practices, recover embezzled funds and strengthen the financial management of the State.
Furthermore, Éric Tshikuma highlights the decisive role of whistleblowers in the fight against corruption. He stresses the urgent need for protective legislation for these shadowy actors, who dare to denounce embezzlement and abuse of power. By advocating for a law to protect whistleblowers, the national deputy recalls that the transparency and accountability of public actors are fundamental pillars of sound and ethical governance.
Despite the progress made, the DRC continues to face major economic challenges. The fight against corruption and embezzlement remains an absolute priority for the harmonious development of the country. In this regard, the active involvement of all political and institutional actors is essential to consolidate the achievements and intensify the fight against corruption.
Éric Tshikuma’s remarks highlight the need for close collaboration between control bodies such as the IGF and civil society organizations involved in promoting good governance. This multidisciplinary and cooperative approach is essential to strengthen control mechanisms, fight against impunity and erect safeguards against practices that are detrimental to the general interest.
In conclusion, the vision promoted by Éric Tshikuma resonates as a call for collective action and citizen vigilance. Beyond speeches, it is through general mobilization and resolute commitment that the DRC will be able to strengthen its institutions, restore the trust of citizens and breathe new life into the management of public affairs.
