As part of the national and provincial legislative elections in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the Independent National Electoral Commission (CENI) is taking a decisive step by announcing the reopening of the Bosolo Electoral Center, located at number 3075 Avenue des Entrepôts, Quartier Kingabwa, in the Commune of Limeté. This decision comes in the context of the resumption of polls in the constituencies of Masi-Manimba in the province of Kwilu and Yakoma in the province of North Ubangi, two regions essential for the smooth political and administrative functioning of the country.
The program for the reopening of the Bosolo Electoral Center is carefully planned. The official inauguration is scheduled for Friday, December 13, 2024, followed by a guided tour reserved for distinguished guests, including the media, diplomatic representatives, technical and financial partners, representatives of political parties, representatives of civil society and religious denominations. Accreditations will begin immediately and continue the following day, Saturday, December 14, from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Finally, Sunday, December 15 is the sacred day of voting, marking the culmination of this crucial process.
This reorganization of the electoral calendar is essential for the political future of the country. The organization of elections in the constituencies of Masi-Manimba and Yakoma is an essential prerequisite for the holding of the next elections of governors, senators, as well as for the election of members of the final bureau of the provincial assemblies of Kwilu and Nord-Ubangi. The proper functioning of these two provinces depends on these electoral deadlines, and it is imperative to respect the new calendar set by the CENI to guarantee the democratic stability of the country.
In conclusion, this reopening of the Bosolo Electoral Center marks a major step in the electoral process in the DRC. It demonstrates the authorities’ desire to guarantee transparent, free and fair elections. The stakes are high, and every citizen is called upon to exercise their democratic duty by actively participating in these elections which are crucial for the future of the Congolese nation.
