In the city of Goma, popular revenge has become a common and alarming practice. The inhabitants take justice themselves because of the inefficiency of the police and justice services. Corruption within the judiciary promotes impunity for offenders. To combat this situation, it is essential to provide the police with adequate logistical means and to punish corrupt magistrates. Raising public awareness is also essential in order to restore confidence in the competent authorities. Popular vindictiveness must be fought vigorously in order to preserve security and justice in Goma.

A tragic incident took place in Tchomia, Ituri, when a soldier opened fire on a group of people, killing thirteen people, most of whom were children. The soldier’s anger was reportedly sparked by the burial of his son in his absence, which led to a violent confrontation with his in-laws. Local authorities are looking for the soldier and have put in place measures to ease the tension in the area. This incident highlights the importance of peacefully resolving family disputes and strengthening mediation mechanisms to avoid such tragic events in the future.

The decision to grant provisional release to Fortunat Biselele, former adviser to the Congolese head of state, has sparked a lively debate in public opinion. Accused of treason and endangering state security, Biselele had been imprisoned since last January. Some see this release as proof of the independence of justice and respect for human rights, while others consider this decision inappropriate and dangerous for the security of the State. The arguments put forward by Biselele’s defense highlight his innocence and political manipulation against him, while critics fear that his release will weaken the authority of justice and suppress any opposition. This case therefore raises key questions about justice, state security and the political situation in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

The Congolese government has decided to carry out checks on international organizations operating in the DRC in order to guarantee their compliance with the laws in force. This decision follows reports of security abuses within some NGOs. The control will consist of examining the annual reports of the last five years and verifying the precise location of their operations in the field. The objective is to ensure transparency and respect for the law while recognizing the importance of NGOs in development and humanitarian aid in the DRC. A balance must be found between the necessary control and the valuable contribution of NGOs.

The National Council for Universal Coverage (CNCU) in the Democratic Republic of Congo is analyzed and proposals for optimal health coverage are made. Currently, the CNCU is experiencing technical difficulties and does not guarantee free health care. To improve the situation, the creation of an autonomous “Health Fund”, based on the bases of the existing social security funds, is proposed. This would make it possible to extend health coverage to the entire population. It is time to take concrete steps to build a universal health system in the DRC.
