“Scandal in the Democratic Republic of Congo: Close collaborators of the president of the Electoral Commission ordered to go to the office of the National Intelligence Agency”
In news that shook the political scene in the Democratic Republic of Congo, close collaborators of the president of the Independent National Electoral Commission (CENI) were invited to go to the office of the general administrator of the National Intelligence Agency (ANR). This summons, received in the form of letters dated September 19, aroused the concern and annoyance of the president of the CENI, Denis Kadima.
The eight employees all received identical letters inviting them to come to the office of the general administrator of the ANR for an “important communication concerning them”. These employees include the person in charge of training, logistics and operations, the person in charge of finance, the person in charge of new information technologies, the IT advisor, the IT director and his deputy, as well as the deputy director responsible for logistics and the permanent secretary of the management and procurement unit.
This initiative was seen as a direct attack against Denis Kadima himself, who sees this summons as an attempt to destabilize his leadership at the CENI. However, none of the collaborators has yet responded to this invitation, and it should be noted that President Félix Tshisekedi was informed of the situation during his private meeting with Denis Kadima when submitting his presidential candidacy.
This summons comes at a crucial time, less than two months before the presidential election combined with national, provincial and municipal legislative elections. The employees concerned play an essential role in coordinating electoral operations, particularly in the supply of equipment and data management with the use of the electronic voting device. The CENI recently placed an order for more than 23,000 “voting machines” from South Korea’s Miru Systems to complement those used in previous elections.
In the tense political context of the DRC, this summons raises questions about possible attempts to manipulate the elections. The opposition, represented in particular by Martin Fayulu, Denis Mukwege, Moïse Katumbi and Delly Sesanga, calls for increased surveillance of the population in polling stations in order to guarantee the transparency of the vote. Even President Félix Tshisekedi appealed to his supporters to ensure the regularity of the elections.
It remains to be seen how this situation will evolve and whether CENI employees will ultimately respond to the ANR’s summons. In the meantime, the issue of elections in the Democratic Republic of Congo remains crucial for the country and attracts the attention of the international community.
In conclusion, this summons of collaborators of the Independent National Electoral Commission raises questions about attempts to destabilize and manipulate elections in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The transparency of the electoral process is essential to ensure the legitimacy of the results and the confidence of the Congolese people. It is therefore important to closely monitor developments in this situation and ensure free and fair elections are held in December 2023.
