The opposition teams Limete-JSK P and Bwasad-Forum will compete on the grounds of the Kinshasa International Fair (FIKIN). Many other formations will also play during this day.

A Congolese political leader has filed a complaint against President Félix Tshisekedi for high treason, accusing him of integrating the Democratic Republic of Congo into the Community of East African States (EAC) which threatens the country’s independence . Article 8 of the EAC treaty gives the power to dissolve the Congolese parliament, while article 4 allows the community to acquire, manage and dispose of Congolese land. Senator Muyumba also urged the departure of regional forces from the EAC, while the Minister of Finance denounced the questionable economic ties of the presidential candidates. The Secretary General of the United Nations calls for strengthened inter-African cooperation to resolve the Congolese crisis and that of the Great Lakes. The economic situation is worrying with deadly clashes between communities and a fight against gold trafficking.

Senator Francine Muyumba called for the departure of the regional force of the member states of the East African Community (EAC) before the deployment of that of the SADC to avoid any overlap in the DRC. The SADC has approved the deployment of its soldiers in the coming days. In the DRC, unpunished illicit enrichment remains a major obstacle to development and political stability remains fragile. However, initiatives are being taken to improve governance, public finances and the fight against mafia networks. Consult our blog regularly to stay informed of current events in the DRC.

In an interview with “JMK Today” on Télé 50, the Minister of Finance of the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Nicolas Kazadi, declared that the war suffered for 30 years by the DRC has been mainly economic. Some Congolese occupying important positions within the administration have dubious national allegiances, while presidential candidates have shares in counters located in Kigali which are supplied by smuggling. The fight against illicit enrichment remains a major obstacle to Africa’s development. The political situation remains tense, with deadly clashes between communities and political tensions, but the country is moving towards a better future with the dismantling of a network of gold traffickers and a major renovation of university sites.

Unpunished illicit enrichment represents a major obstacle to the development of Africa, warns Jules Alingete, Congolese policeman of public finances. He denounces the practice of lying, deception and betrayal in African politics, as well as the primacy of mediocrity over excellence. Despite the resistance of some politicians, the majority continue to perpetuate these degrading practices, endangering the population they claim to serve. The DRC is building an arsenal to fight against corruption and prevent any embezzlement of public funds. Jules Alingete represents an inspiring icon in this fight and the mobilization against impunity granted to embezzlement must continue for the economic well-being of Africa.

The article addresses the concern of mafia networks about the effectiveness of Jean-Pierre Bemba, the new Minister of Defense in the DRC, to restore security in the troubled regions. False rumors have also been relayed on social networks to sow discord between him and Felix Tshisekedi, president of the Sacred Union. Bemba is committed to respecting past agreements and his sole objective is to help Tshisekedi restore peace and discipline in the DRC. The two men work together for a better future.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called at the Addis Ababa Framework Agreement summit on peace, security and cooperation in the DRC and the Great Lakes region, to strengthen cooperation to help establish peace and security in this region. Despite the progress made, the various armed groups continue to cause suffering to the Congolese population. The mobilization of the entire international community is therefore necessary, according to Mr. Guterres, and the United Nations must support African initiatives to solve the problems of the region. The Secretary-General encourages the withdrawal of M23 and the cantonment of armed groups to solve the security problem.
