Originally from Maniema, Salomon Idi Kalonda, elected senator in Haut-Katanga, recently spoke to emphasize the importance of national unity. From Belgium where he continues his treatment and after having obtained his conditional release, he expressed his gratitude to the 11 provincial deputies of Ensemble pour la République who placed their trust in him.
Salomon Idi Kalonda has clearly indicated his desire to work for reconciliation and peace throughout the Democratic Republic of Congo, particularly in the east of the country.
