The Democratic Republic of Congo is a heartbeat away from the presidential election slated this December. Tshisekedi who utterly failed to deliver his promises to DRC citizens because of his gross incompetence, has found that the blame games no longer work. And the only strategy that may extend his stay at the Palace of the Nation, is to sow belligerence and divide people—Tshisekedi is relying on state emergency than ever.
Tshisekedi has to justify his imminent aggression against Rwanda through a communiqué. Dumb he is, he ordered his FARDC to form a pretext based on a fake statement they accused Rwanda to have issued. The statement erroneously accused Rwanda to turn several Congolese territories rear base of its army, and as consequence, FARDC is ready to retaliate if Rwanda army shoots while on DRC territories. The FARDC statement shows how Tshisekedi is opting for war based on a figmental narrative that ‘Rwanda occupied DRC territories.
This bellicose attitude was also confirmed by FDLR which had been in glove with the FARDC. Cure Ngoma who is the genocidal group’s Spokesperson, told the Voice of America that blacklisted terrorist group is “ready to attack Rwanda soon.”
Tshisekedi belligerence doesn’t end with neighboring country Rwanda. The chaos octopus Tshisekedi wants also to sow reasons for a civil war, as he continues to kidnap, assassinate and arbitrary arrest opposition politicians. The murder of the previous Minister of Mines and Hydrocarbons, Cherubin Okende, as well as the violence that began in Kramouth and escalated to the commune of Maluku, the provinces of Kwilu and Kwango, and Kinshasa are evidence.
To Tshisekedi, whether it is a civil war or a war with neighboring Rwanda (if not both) ensure him a state of emergency in more regions of the country. The forthcoming presidential election is a nightmare to the failed DRC regime ruler who didn’t even win the first election. Unfortunately, war will not save him, as well.
