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.
