The legacy of Marshal Mobutu Sese Seko continues to spark debate and reflection, particularly on the need to draw positive lessons from his reign. Professor Mvemba Pezo Dizolele, during a workshop in Kinshasa, stressed the importance of rebuilding unity and revitalizing national education, building on the achievements of the past to build a better future.
According to the speaker, the Democratic Republic of Congo needs strong and visionary leadership, capable of taking into account the contributions of each and implementing the resolutions of the sovereign national conference. He highlights the need to renew the political class and promote targeted action and investment programs.
Indeed, Congo faces significant challenges and only an inclusive and collaborative approach can overcome them. The professor emphasizes the importance of working collectively to ensure the stability and development of the country. He encourages an open and constructive debate on the issues of governance and public affairs, in order to build a more just and prosperous future.
The experience of the Mobutu years offers valuable lessons, particularly in terms of national unity and post-conflict reconstruction. It is essential to capitalize on these lessons to build a more inclusive and resilient society. The professor emphasizes that despite the criticisms leveled at the previous regime, it is also important to recognize the positive aspects and draw inspiration from them to build a better future for all Congolese.
The research conducted by Professor Mvemba Pezo Dizolele, based on the analysis of declassified documents, aims to inform the political debate by providing factual and historical elements. These conclusions should be made available to leaders and the public in order to fuel a democratic and constructive discussion on the future of the country.
In short, learning from the past, rebuilding national unity and promoting an inclusive vision of the future are imperatives for the DRC. By drawing on the lessons of the past, the country will be able to build a more promising future and respond to current challenges with determination and wisdom.
