In the context of maintaining public order and fighting crime in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the collaboration between the Congolese National Police (PNC) and the United Nations Stabilization Mission in the DRC (MONUSCO) is of paramount importance. Divisional Commissioner Ngoyi Sengelwa, Provincial Commander of the PNC in Ituri, recently expressed his gratitude to the MONUSCO police for their valuable support during a meeting in Bunia.
The efforts made by MONUSCO in terms of providing anti-riot equipment and improving infrastructure have strengthened the operational capacity of the PNC. The establishment of an integrated operational strategy has enabled the Congolese police to improve its professionalism and intensify its actions to combat urban banditry.
The visit of the head of the MONUSCO police component to Bunia was an opportunity for the provincial commander to underline the importance of collaboration between the two entities. Staff training, equipment and infrastructure support are all areas in which MONUSCO provides its support, with the ultimate goal of ensuring the well-being of the population.
The close cooperation between the PNC and MONUSCO has enabled the strengthening of the capacities of the Congolese law enforcement agencies, particularly in the fight against insecurity. This collaboration demonstrates a shared desire to guarantee the security of citizens and to carry out concrete actions to preserve peace in the region.
Ultimately, this strategic alliance between the PNC and MONUSCO represents a real asset in the fight against crime and the preservation of public order in the DRC. Thanks to effective coordination and concerted actions, these two entities work hand in hand to ensure the security of the populations and promote stability in the Ituri region.
