The new sensation of Congolese football, Cédric Bakambu, is once again on the front of the stage. Indeed, with his 18 goals scored this season with the Olympiakos team in the Super League Greece, he is currently the top scorer in the championship. Arrived in September 2022 from Olympique de Marseille, Bakambu has proven his ability to score goals at any time during the match.
His remarkable career has earned him numerous titles and distinctions, including best player of the month for October 2017 in La Liga of the Spanish league, top scorer of the Turkish Cup in 2015, player of the month for February 2023 of the Greek league. , as well as that of the top scorer in Super Ligue 1 in 2023.
Despite all these feats, Bakambu will be absent from the DRC national team’s next match against Gabon in June, due to suspension. However, that shouldn’t stop Bakambu from getting offers from top European clubs.
Apart from football, the situation in the DRC is marked by many challenges, such as the modernization of the Mbuji-Mayi-Mwene-Ditu road which aims to strengthen trade and improve living conditions. Kinshasa parliamentarians also alerted the National Assembly to the security situation in Maluku while Laurent Batumona is on a tour to raise awareness among the population of Grand Bandundu in preparation for Felix Tshisekedi’s visit to Kwango province.
Finally, the deployment of regional troops to restore peace in eastern DRC is hampered by numerous obstacles and the security situation has deteriorated sharply in Beni, where a new recent attack by ADF rebels caused numerous victims.
These events underline the importance of stability and security to enable the economic and social development of the country, whose soaring prices for agricultural products in Ituri are a direct consequence of the growing insecurity in eastern DRC.
