Title: Dive into the news: the extraordinary congress of the UDPS for the nomination of the candidate for the presidential election
Introduction :
In the Congolese political landscape, the Union for Democracy and Social Progress (UDPS) is the focus of all attention. Indeed, the party announced the holding of an extraordinary congress in order to designate its candidate for the presidential election scheduled for next December. This decision aroused many reactions and caused a lot of ink to flow. In this article, we dive into the heart of the news by focusing on this major political event.
The choice of Félix Tshisekedi: unfailing support
During a talk at the esplanade of the headquarters of Limete, Augustin Kabuya, secretary general of the UDPS, called on all members of the party to choose Félix Tshisekedi, current president of the Republic, as a candidate for his own succession. This decision aims to consolidate the power in place and to maintain the course on the path of social progress. The general secretary warns against any attempt to destabilize President Tshisekedi, citing the exclusion of party members responsible for an unauthorized congress and attempts to block party bank accounts. This firmness is explained by the desire to preserve the unity and integrity of the UDPS.
A political rebellion in view of the elections
Augustin Kabuya claims that these acts of rebellion within the party aim to disrupt the ongoing electoral process. He invites the members of the UDPS not to give in to the political manipulation hatched by the enemies of the party and the Head of State. Faced with this attempt at destabilization, the ruling party is actively preparing by registering more than 700 candidates for the provincial legislative elections and more than 400 candidates for national deputy.
Conclusion :
The extraordinary congress of the UDPS for the designation of the candidate for the presidential election is a major event in Congolese political news. While the power in place is mobilizing to consolidate its position and maintain the course of social progress, dissident forces seek to disrupt the electoral process. In this tense context, unity and discipline within the UDPS are crucial to ensure the stability and development of the country
