The Youth League of the Movement for the Liberation of the Congo (MLC)

The Youth League of the Movement for the Liberation of the Congo (MLC) organized this Saturday, February 01, 2020, its 1st session of the permanent youth council with the aim of advancing the party in its process of conquering power in 2023.

Held under the theme: “Alternative governance in the DRC: coordination of the youth efforts of the MLC for the conquest of power”, the leaders of the various structures of Jean-Pierre Bemba’s party reflected on actions on the ground to be carried out in the next days.

“It is in our interest to federate this block [of young editors] in order to obtain a homogeneous block which can bring a considerable impact and be an asset for the MLC in its approach for the conquest of power in order to apply its governance program which would be beneficial for our nation (…) Soon, the MLC will be heard by its youth, not only in Kinshasa but in the DRC, “said Aldarich Luboya, president of the MLC Youth League.

Speaking, the secretary general of the party Eve Bazaïba called on young people to put aside their “differences” and “mood” to achieve the objectives of the party.

“Walk hand in hand to build a strong youth. Mark the way to victory (…) You therefore have the heavy burden of waking up the sleeping youth,” she said.

Several interventions marked the day, namely:

– The soul of the MLC facing the challenge of unity;

– Youth, operational arm of a political party;

– Exchange of experience on setting up and mobilizing the field;

– MLC and conquest of power: objective, challenges and vision of the youth league;

– Youth and political mobilization of the masses.

The deputies Jacques Djoli and Désiré Mbonzi wa Mbonzi also took part in this 1st session of the permanent youth council.
