This process was initiated by a former candidate for the presidency of the Republic: Noël Tshiani Muadiamvita. She was sponsored by National Deputy Nsingi Pululu. For this former FCC, the social facts that lived in the DRC revealed the need to return to the old ones in the law of nationality.
“It is necessary to return to the provisions of the 1981 Law and the 1984 Election Law, to Article 7 thereof, which provides that only a person born to a Zairean father and mother may be President of the Republic of Zaire. This is a response to the law from 1972 and the Lusaka agreement from 1999, he explains.
Among those who think differently, we find Juvénal Munubo, selected from the UNC in Vital Kamerhe. stay as long as possible, and some think this is a way to help the head of state stay in power as long as possible, he explains. I believe that the President of the Republic will not forget that the best way to hold power for a long time is to meet the needs of the people. “
Others are talking about a dangerous step. Because, according to them, this type of law can be a dividing factor, as for example in the Ivory Coast, with the law of “Ivoirité”.
