Under @PaulKagame a young man can reportedly lose his life over a tweet, while others rot in prison simply for reading a book. Is that what you call leadership?@ali_naka Don’t sell your conscience just to feed your stomach. Some things are more important than money and food.🔥
Is #F1 a win for Africa or a PR stunt for @PaulKagame? Reports document atrocities in Congo #M23#RDF, torture, jailed/killed journalists & crushed dissent. With $1,100 GDP per capita & 39% in poverty, #Rwanda isn’t ready. Why reward a ruthless ruler with a global stage? @F1 🇷🇼💔
Tim Kennedy. Quelque fois le malheur est bon. Bonne guérison Tim. J'aimes la publicité que cette histoire a aux etats-unis. On parle de ça partout. C'est bon pr le recrutement des Americains de la force speciale. Aussi Erik Prince a appris une leçon qui ne va pas se répéter
@bosco2time@AugustCohen4 Mon frere, trade isn't exploitation when it's built on mutual value. DRC has minerals the word needs, and drc needs investments. @AugustCohen4 , invests ,create jobs for congolese families and advocates for DRC. How is that a bad trade for us? What's your realistic alternative?
@bosco2time@AugustCohen4 Personal attacks don't change the facts on the ground. Like we say back home: unless you're American, you really need to be Congolese or both because it's just too beautiful. No need to be jealous!
@kagabop4@AugustCohen4 I’m from South Kivu, I know the Banyamulenge community, and you don't speak for them. The identity of the Banyamulenge represents Congolese Tutsis refusing to be associated with Rwanda.
#Ebola in #DRC is not currently spreading westward.
And while transmission continues to occur, it is beginning to slow which eventually means the epidemic will end. I agree with you governance is the key and given transmission is slowing clearly suggests #Congo has solid state capacity when it comes to disease management of highly infectious diseases despite limited resources that must be spent in a country that size of western Europe.
I'd add governance would improve if the fascist regimes in Kigali and Kampala that you openly support would stop their violent interventions in Congo to steal its resources to traffic to the Chinese and Emirates - the latter of which are arming a genocide of Africans in Sudan.
En 2019, j’avais décidé de quitter l’étranger pour investir à Kinshasa. En 3 ans, j’ai perdu tout l’argent que j’avais gagné pendant 15 ans. Je suis reparti mains vides.
Je rédige aujourd’hui un livre sur ces 3 ans à Kinshasa : saleté, bruit, désordre, justice, embouteillages.
#DRC: Important point relayed today at this Atlantic Council gathering. The man who now leads African diplomacy for @realDonaldTrump is expressing a growing bipartisan view of Africa - namely, that it is in the US's long term economic and security interests that we source not just minerals, but products from those minerals from Africa. This aligns with the views of DRC's elites (in and out of power) that #Congo must industrialize around its minerals to supply its economy and the world's.

"Fleuve Zaïre" était donc un pur pléonasme. Nous étions donc en train de répéter deux fois le mot "Fleuve", d'abord en Français, puis en Kikongo.
Dans le parlé Kinois, il y a eu trois pléonasmes grossiers similaires :
1] Le surnom de Papa Wemba : Le "Vieux Mzee"
2] Le surnom du Président Kabila : Le "Président Raïs"
3] Et le fameux "Mafuta ya Huile"
S’il faut rester dans la période post-Mobutu, le Nord Kivu a offert à la République 4 figures emblématiques mortes pour la NATION (quelque soit leur origine ethnique) :
1] Miguel Masaïsaï.
2] Luc Nkulula.
3] Mamadou Ndala.
4] Rebecca Masika Katsuva.
Pour moi, l’histoire, la contribution et l'héroïsme de Madame Masika est la plus émouvante.
#RDC À l'occasion des 30 ans du début de la première guerre du Congo, la Ville de #Bruxelles porte, du 1er septembre au 6 octobre 2026, la campagne "30 ans de guerre, 30 ans d'impunité". Cette campagne est consacrée aux populations de l'Est.
