In the daily Le Potentiel, in the headline, “Election 2023: CENCO Reveals Its Roadmap”. According to this newspaper, “the National Bishops’ Conference in Congo intends to maintain pressure on the government to hold parliamentary elections in 2023.” This structure of the Catholic Church insists that it “does not tolerate any slippage”, we can still read. “The CENCO roadmap includes a range of activities, Le Potentiel explains, such as the citizens ‘and electoral education campaign, the development of the citizens’ election calendar and even the observation of election day.”
“Election Cycle 2023. Why is the Catholic Bishop’s Revolt Excited?” asks Le Phare, another daily. “After warning the Heads of State and Government against any breach of the 2023 deadline for holding presidential, national and provincial legislative, senatorial and other elections […], writes this newspaper, the “bishops” now operate sometimes in groups, sometimes solo, to shout around that there is a risk of extending the mandate of the President of the Republic and other members of the national and provincial institutions. “On a daily basis” is the agitation of the Catholic Diocese at the time when Félix Antoine Tshisekedi has just entered the third year of his term and there are still 33 months left until the voting, especially the President – and regulatory, is strong. suspicious. Our countrymen in cassettes, emerging more and more as political actors, Le Phare believes, should have the courage and honesty to play their cards on the table by setting millions of Congolese readers on their true status. “
For its part, the daily La République on the political issues is ecstatic: “The Holy Union blocked!” This newspaper publishes on the front page a cartoon that presents an overloaded vehicle but which does not start. “After two years” wasted “in political quarrels with his former” ally “, Félix Tshisekedi’s power seems torn between the centrifugal and centripetal forces of the political class”, observers colleagues in the newspaper La République, before continuing: “Time is not for the new power page and there is a risk of reliving the scenario in 2019, where time wasted for regrettable results.More than a month after his appointment, notes La République, Jean-Michel Sama Lukonde has still not been successful in creating the version of His government team. “For this newspaper,” the new prime minister would therefore be hostage to the ambitions of each of the partners and personalities who contributed to the birth of the Holy Union of the Nation. “
Finally, AfricaNews discusses the rehabilitation of Kinshasa General Hospital. “Ex Mama Yemo, suspicious public market. Major suspicions weigh over the central coordination office and modern construction [une société de construction] belonging to Harish Jagtani of Indian nationality. “
For the three-week AfricaNews, the internal sources of the general direction of control of public contracts and BCECO were quick to condemn the corruption surrounding the contract awarded to the company Modern Construct. “How is the most expensive offer explained, however, arrived in 4th position, the newspaper notes, could have won?” In the three weekly year, the public regulator is the only one who knows the reasons for the favorable announcement for Modern Construct, the recipient of a contract awarded in breach of legal procedures and the decision of the appointed Minister of the Republic.
