Finally, the daily La République Congo-Kinshasa’s 61 years of independence evoke a reflection by Gaston Mutamba Lukusa. This former banker calls for efforts to increase production. This country was promised the role of economic power in its independence, but it was betrayed by its elite, says Mutamba Lukusa.
