There are growing tensions between the opposition and the CENI in the Democratic Republic of Congo over the electoral roll. The opposition demands an audit by a reputable international firm to guarantee the integrity of the electoral process. If the CENI continues to favor the outgoing president, the opposition will use all democratic means to obtain his departure. It asks for the publication of the provisional lists in each enrollment center and on the CENI website. Despite President Tshisekedi’s attempts to keep the peace, Rwandan-backed M23 terrorist attacks are creating insecurity in the east of the country.
