The opening ceremony of the IX Games of La Francophonie at the Martyrs Stadium is about to begin, creating an atmosphere of excitement and festivities in Kinshasa. Security measures have been reinforced and checkpoints have been set up to ensure the safety of participants and spectators.
Preparations for the ceremony were intensive, with teams working tirelessly to iron out the final details. Inside the stadium, stands, colored tents and cameras have been installed, creating an impressive decoration in the colors of La Francophonie.
The call was made to the people of Kinshasa to actively participate in these games by displaying their national flag. The Congolese government spokesman, Patrick Muyaya, expressed the wish to see a massive participation of the population to celebrate the country with all the other participants coming from abroad.
In parallel, other news mark Congolese news. Tensions were reported on the border between the DRC and Rwanda, following an exchange of fire. Security challenges arise as measures are taken to address this situation.
On the other hand, President Felix Tshisekedi is visiting China to strengthen strategic cooperation between the two countries. This visit aims to promote economic and diplomatic exchanges for the development of the DRC.
In politics, the Congolese opposition is demanding the resignation of the President of the Constitutional Court, accused of violations of the duty of reserve. Voices are also rising to demand crucial measures to shed light on the assassination of Cherubin Okende and ensure justice.
In addition, the postponement of the enafep in the DRC has raised the expectations of thousands of students who are waiting for the certification tests to be held.
Finally, the president of the AGPC party, Carole Agito Amela, intensifies her fight against harassment against women, highlighting the need to raise awareness and fight against this scourge.
The DRC therefore faces a variety of challenges and issues, but also many opportunities for development and cooperation. Congolese news is rich in events that testify to the evolution of the country and its desire to progress on the political, security and socio-economic levels
