On 26 October, Austria commemorates its permanent neutrality, declared in 1955 following the withdrawal of Allied troops after World War II. Since 1965, this date has been celebrated as Austria’s National Day. I have joined Austrians to celebrate National Day, I am grateful for the opportunities to live, work and contribute to the community. May Austria continue to stand for Peace, Freedom, Democracy, Human rights and equal opportunities for all.

Happy Austrian National Day🇦🇹

I truly appreciate the continued trust and look forward to the next opportunity! Doing what I do best and enjoy most.#Peacebuilding #DDR

On Sunday 18.10.2026 , I was saddened by the news circulating on social media about the reported death of Ssgt Robert Kabera a.k.a Kama Jeshi, who was allegedly killed and beheaded in Uganda.

I first met Kama Jeshi in December 2007 at Agashya Bar in Kabarore after his concert. I loved his songs, especially Majeshi Makali and Impanda. During Ingando in 2008, I used to perform Majeshi at Igitamaduni, trying to imitate him. We met again at the University of Rwanda in 2009 and Alpha Palace Hotel in 2012. We kept in touch until life took us in different directions.

Although I disagreed with his later political engagement with opposition figures around the world, I will always cherish our memories and his performances with the RDF Army Jazz Band.

Rest in peace Kama Jeshi. Your music and memories will live on.

Former DRC President Joseph Kabila’s reported alliance with AFC/M23 and leadership of the new movement FRN (Force pour la Refondation de la Nation) raises a critical question: Will this development escalate or de-escalate the conflict in eastern DRC?

Ironically, during his presidency, Kabila’s government fought the M23 rebellion. Today, they are reportedly united against the incumbent President Félix Tshisekedi following Kabila’s death sentence in absentia by a military court in Kinshasa on charges including treason, war crimes and alleged collaboration with Rwanda and AFC/M23.

As the conflict continues, Congolese Kinyarwanda-speaking(Banyamulenge) communities keep raising concerns about their rights, security and recognition as Congolese citizens. Their concerns must be addressed. Eastern DRC is rich in strategic minerals, but its people continue to pay the price of prolonged conflict.

As the famous political saying goes: “In politics, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies, only permanent interests.” Will this new alliance open the door to peace, or deepen the conflict?
