In this article, we discuss the reaction of Martin Fayulu, president of the ECIDé, following the decision of the CENI not to organize another external audit of the electoral register in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Fayulu expresses his outrage on Twitter, accusing the CENI of electoral fraud and taking the Congolese for panurge sheep. The CENI justifies its decision by calling the opposition’s request for an external audit “illogical”. This controversy highlights the political tensions in the DRC and highlights the need for constructive dialogue for free and fair elections.
