With 95% of the work done, of which the remaining 5% is to be devoted to the finalization of the agreement, everything is within our reach, the Archbishop of Kisangani and President of the National Episcopal Conference of Congo (CENCO ), Marcel Utembi. Three days earlier, on December 21, 2016, this prince of the Roman Curia addressed the participants in the interdiocesan dialogue in these pathetic terms: “I would now like to convey to you a personal message from the Holy Father, Pope Francis . Since the Catholic Church of the DRC has embarked on this mission of good offices, the Pope mobilizes the universal Church to pray for the DRC. On Sunday 18 December the Pope asked all the faithful of the world to pray that the political dialogue in the DRC should take place in a “serenity to avoid any kind of violence” and lead to “good for the country”. On Monday, at the private audience he gave us, the Holy Father reassured us in these words: “I am concerned about what is happening in your country that I want to visit at the right time. I pray for the Congolese people and the responsibility in the search for the well-being of the population. I assure the Congolese people of my spiritual closeness and bless them. ”
Let us replant the scenery of this foggy Congolese political landscape. From 19 to 21 January 2015, violent riots broke out in Kinshasa, the capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, following the controversial electoral law debated in Parliament. On 12 February 2015, the Independent National Electoral Commission (CENI) made public the overall electoral calendar, which complied with the constitutional deadlines. Following the example of the partial electoral calendar published the previous year, this restrictive chronogram was rejected as a whole, paradoxically, by the Congolese Opposition and a fringe of the international community which had demanded it to the horn and cry. On 1 June 2015, the President of the Republic, Joseph Kabila, gave the go-ahead of the presidential consultations for the holding of the dialogue at the Palais de la Nation. On November 28, 2015, Joseph Kabila convened the national inclusive political dialogue by way of Order. The controversy has been engaged, for months, on international mediation or facilitation between the parties involved in the failed electoral process. At the same time, the President of the Commission of the African Union (AU) appointed former Togolese Prime Minister Edem Kodjo, Facilitator of Congolese Dialogue. At the end of March 2016, the UN Security Council invited, through Resolution 2277, Congolese actors to inclusive dialogue and respect for the Constitution. Notwithstanding the involvement of the international community, political unrest continued. At the end of July 2016, cross meetings drew immense crowds: the presidential mobility at the Tata Raphael stadium and the Rassemblement made in Genval on the Boulevard Triomphal in Kinshasa. And the start of the operation of enlistment of the voters in the North-Ubangi province.
From 1 September to 18 October 2016, the inclusive National Political Dialogue of the African Union City had put the Presidential Majority, the Pro-Dialogue Opposition and a fringe of civil society and religious denominations around a table, Under the facilitation of Edem Kodjo and the international support of the UN, the AU, the EU, the OIF, the SADC and the ICGLR. At the end of the work, the political agreement of the City of the AU was born. Unfortunately, a new outbreak of violence occurred in Kinshasa between 19 and 21 September. Many casualties ! Pursuant to the spirit and letter of the agreement, Augustin Matata Ponyo handed over his chair to Prime Minister Samy Badibanga, Chairman of the UDPS parliamentary group and Allies in the National Assembly, from the ranks of the Opposition or even the Rassemblement Co-founder since Genval, a suburb of Brussels (Belgium). The Congolese people as a whole welcomed the appointment of this worthy son of the country. Hence, the impressive crowd at the Palais du Peuple at the inauguration of the Badibanga government on Thursday, December 22, 2016. Like a good shepherd who, having 99 sheep in the enclosure, President Joseph Kabila resorted to the good offices of the Catholic Bishops in order to bring back to the dialogue boat the radicalized fringe of the Opposition, in this case the Rally led by Patriarch Etienne Tshisekedi of the UDPS and The Front for the Respect of the Constitution led by Eve Bazaïba of the MLC. Curiously, these politicians no longer demanded international mediation and did not refer to the famous Resolution 2277 at the start of these direct discussions. Thanks to the professionalism of the forces of order, the apocalypse predicted by the prophets of the misfortunes did not take place on this “fateful date” of December 19, 2016.

Although it has been marginalized by the political actors R.D. Congolais, the Congolese youth is full of good heads made in the civil society. During a workshop organized on December 17, 2016, Youth of the Civil Society, anxious to contribute to the exit from the crisis in the DRC, at the Maison des Elections, reflected under three (3) thematic commissions, Namely: the thematic Election, thematic Descrition and thematic Good governance. At the end of this workshop, under the moderation of Richie Lontulungu, a litany of recommendations were formulated to finally push the political actors into discussions at the interdiocesan center, to privilege the national interest and cultivate peace.
Given the patriotic will to participate actively in the process of reconstruction, reconciliation and development of the DRC, Youth Militant has addressed all the actors who have a parcel of power in the Democratic Republic of the Congo in order to ” Attach to civic and moral values that would help the country break the deadlock. The National Episcopal Conference of Congo (CENCO) can, even if it has its plan B, use these recommendations of Congolese youth who have given themselves the task of reflecting for peace and the calm electoral process in the DRC.
Elections
Regarding the “election theme”, in spite of the current electoral process, Youth Militant recommends that the CENI set up an electoral body that inspires confidence in all stakeholders; To make good use of the funds placed at its disposal; Fund and intensify civic and electoral education activities; To sensitize and train political parties on the electoral system in the DRC; To set up a consensual and realistic electoral calendar.
On this, it asked the government to finance and respect the disbursement plan signed with the CENI and secure the electoral process in an impartial way.
In the National Assembly it is recommended to pass the law on the distribution of seats and to enforce all laws relating to the organization of elections.
Decreased
As measures of political decrimination, Youth Militant recommends that elective institutions remain in place until the establishment of a new legislature; The release of all political prisoners and detainees of opinion by presidential pardon; An amnesty for all political exiles.
During the transitional period, it is stressed that the Constitution of the Republic can not be amended, either by referendum or by any form whatsoever. Through a consensual voice, share power equitably at all levels: Transitional Government, Public Enterprises,
Provincial governments (at the level of decentralized territorial entities).
The Militant Youth also advocates for effective representation of young people and women activists in civil society in all decision-making bodies. That the police, she says, do not use real bullets in the framing of the demonstrators. In case of overflow, the police are called upon to make use of peaceful and modern methods. Thus, Youth Militant, aware of the irrefutable role of Youth in the various mutations and socio-political stakes, recommends the lifting of the measure banning recruitment and promotion of agents in public institutions.
Good governance
In terms of governance, Youth Militancy requires the Prime Minister who will manage the transition to compose his government in the following manner: 35% of the members of the Opposition; 35% of the Presidential Majority and, finally, 30% of the civil society.
At the level of decentralized institutions, Militant Youth demands that the quota be in line with the government.
Contrary to those who advocate the restructuring of the CENI, the Youth of the Civil Society opposes this maneuver to delay the electoral process in progress.

Gaston Musemena Bongala, Minister of Primary, Secondary and Vocational Education, held a meeting with his colleague in charge of Vocational Training, Crafts and Crafts Guy Mikulu.
The purpose of the exchanges between the two ministers was to harmonize views on the responsibilities of their respective ministries. Especially since the Ministry of Epsp, now headed by Gaston Musemena Bongala, recovers the technical and vocational education which, in the Matata government, was a full ministry. While the new portfolio headed by Guy Mikulu, guards and manages vocational training, different from vocational education. Harmonization of the views necessary in the eyes of two members of the government, moreover, National Deputies and Members of the same political family, the Presidential Majority, who logically defend the vision of the President of the Republic, Joseph Kabila Kabange.
The challenge of the interviews between Gaston Musemena Bongala of Epsp and Guy Mikulu of Vocational Training, Crafts and Crafts expanded to the Directors of Cabinets of two ministers is to avoid confusion in terms of their attributions.
This, pending the promulgation in the next few days, of the presidential order assigning the ministries.
Gaston Musemena Bongala, PPRD executive, twice elected to the National Assembly, succeeds Maker Mwangu who broke the record of longevity in the government. The new minister intends to focus his mandate on continuity, preservation of achievements, innovation and improvement, if there are difficulties

Like the father of the Catholic Church of the Democratic Republic of Congo, Cardinal Laurent Monsengwo Pasinya, Metropolitan Archbishop of Kinshasa, who in his Christmas exhortation invites the Congolese to demolish the old demon of the division and Of the killings, Abbé Gaby José, in his turn, looked to the same meaning, a message of peace and the search for the common good, to all Congolese so that this country, which is a blessed gift of God is moving forward.
On the sidelines of Christmas Eve, on December 24, 2016, this vicar of the Saint Vincent de Paul Catholic Parish, Abbé Gaby José speaks of a great mystery, the celebration of the nativity of Christ around which God, Man wants to live with him by bringing peace. This mystery, he continued, incarnates every Congolese God’s greatness to unite in his divinity.
Moreover, faced with the misery of the population, the various tribulations, the political crisis, the inability of the political class to expect and the dark future of the Democratic Republic of Congo, the man of God , Wants policy to be truly a service-based ideal. Politics must be an art, to make the beneficiaries of the population happy.
But beyond that, insists the Abbot, it is not because there is no war or crackling of bullets that there is really peace. It’s irrational! For, he says, peace is above all an inner attitude, a quietude that everyone has, to live quietly at home and make sure of the better tomorrow. It is when every people is assured of the security, legal, social guarantees … in short, of the common good we can speak of a real and effective peace.
Prosperity: Monsieur l’Abbé, today is Christmas, the feast of the birth of Christ and peace. Emmanuel, God among men. What sense do you give to a celebration that is celebrated while peace is moving away from the Congolese more and more?
Rev. Gaby José: Thank you very much for your question on Christmas. First, the meaning we give it is the celebration of a great mystery. It is the incarnation of God that approaches man, who comes to live with man as we say, Emmanuel. It is embodied in us. It takes our nature so that we take its greatness and we unite to its divinity. It is God who comes into us. It is the very one that was announced since the Old Testament by the prophets. He comes like a prince to bring peace. It is peace, as the documents of the Church say. It is not because there is no war that there is peace. It is not because there is the absence of crackling of balls that there is peace. But, peace, it is first of all an inner attitude, the quietude that everyone has, to live quietly, calmly at home. Peace is also to be sure of the morrow. Be sure of today. Peace also means finding what is needed. For example, for one who works, he is in peace when he receives his salary. He who is hungry has peace when he finds food, when he is not abandoned, when he is reinstated in society. This is the peace Jesus gives us. As he himself has said, he does not give peace in the manner of men. For example, a peace at the end of the canon but, as he knows and wants. A peace that brings tranquility and tranquility to the hearts of men.
Pros: Can you reassure the faithful of the parish of Saint Vincent de Paul in particular and all Congolese in general that the peace that Christ brings can be beneficial to everyone and the entire nation?
A.G.J: Yes. This peace, as Cardinal Laurent Monsengwo says in his exhortation, Christ is for all. There is not someone who is put aside. This peace is for everyone. But each one accepts Christ. In the narrative of the gospel we have just heard, wherever Mary and Joseph went to Bethlehem, there was no place for them. That’s when they went to the stable. This peace must be accepted. For, the fact of already closing our hearts, what we close our hearts to welcome Christ. We celebrate Christmas in the manger. Yes, that’s fine, but the real crib is the heart. When we accept it to be born in our hearts, it sows this peace in our hearts. He makes this peace grow in our hearts. If each one of us accepts Christ to bring peace into his heart, we will open all the doors of houses and plots so that we may be able to respond to this peace. This peace of Christ is for everyone and even the Congolese can benefit from it.
The Pros. An appeal to politicians so that they too are able to bring peace in their discussions and transcend their differences?
A.G.J: Most often unfortunately, when talking politics, it is considered a lie. Politics is the place of great charity. Politics is that which is at the service of others. Politics is an ideal, then an ideal of service. Every policy is based on service, the search for the common good. One can not demonize politics only because of certain abuses. But it is a great service to make the beneficiaries of the population happy. Because this service to the people is to provide them with security, judicial and social guarantees.
Interview by Eugène Khonde

This is a first in the history of the DRC and the city-province of Kinshasa, to see a union of nurses raise one of its honorary officials. This is the Solidarity of the Union of Nurses of the Congo “Solsico” which now has its offices located on Kandakanda avenue No. 54 in the commune of Kalamu. A room of this permanence will bear, forever, the name of Doctor Joseph Kibangula. It was yesterday that he himself inaugurated this meeting room in front of the executives of the Solsico as well as representatives of several unions of the nurses of different health institutions of Kinshasa. This rise is a mark of gratitude of the current staff of the Solsico and all its members to this human rights activist. Present at the site, the Coordinator of the Patriotic Movement of the Congolese Youth (MPCJ), Samy Wetshi, officially presented him the diploma of merit entitled “True Patriot”.
It was yesterday, Wednesday, December 28, 2016, that the meeting room “Joseph Kibangula” was inaugurated. It was a surprise for this nominee “True Patriot” by the Patriotic Movement of Congolese Youth (MPCJ). The new building that serves the permanence of the Solsico has more than 7 rooms. Apart from the one named after Dr. Joseph, it should be noted that there are also two other meeting rooms dedicated to Ms Jeanne Mpwekela (Second Provincial Executive Secretary) and the current Provincial Executive Secretary, Mr. Corneille Mbala. According to him, other meeting rooms will be inaugurated very soon.
Solidarity obliges, Doctor Joseph Kibangula was honored not only by his own, but also by the delegates and nurses of various trade union structures who had marked their presence this event. These include CNPP nurses’ unions, the Kinshasa General Provincial General Hospital (Maman Yemo), the University Clinics, the General Stewardship, the Mother and Child Center Hospital, and others.
Merit
The dual event ceremony allowed both to paint a picture of the person of Dr. Joseph Kibangula. Cornelius Mbala expressed himself in these terms: “the qualities of Kibangula are not to be hidden. When he arrived as Provincial Executive Secretary, at the Ngaliema clinic, he was the first person to organize the Ngaliema delegation. That’s one thing. In 1988, there was a strike of the nurses at the town hall and it was with Joseph Kibangula. Today, we are in a process called COSIC (Confederation of Nurses’ Unions) which will take place in a few weeks. It is through him that these initiatives have come. On the other hand, Ms Jeanine Umba, Provincial Secretary in charge of Finance, welcomed the work carried out by the nominee “True Patriot” who, against the winds and tides, managed to control himself by refusing to renounce his dedication In favor of nurses. “He was imprisoned several times and we were always ready to support him. We had seen him many times at the peril of his life, but now he is there on this day. Kibangula is a true fighter who deserves more than what is offered today, “she said.
Heritage
In his speech, Dr. Kibangula, with tears almost in his eyes, was filled with joy. Before his audience, before his speech, he observed a time of silence, revisiting his past so quickly in delusional moments. Then he took courage to utter a cry: “Vidjana! “. To the public to resume: “Cocorico, cocorico, never betray the Congo”. It was under this note of courage that he began to provide advice to his audience. “I have had several arrests in this country. What you do today is first for others and not for yourselves. Whoever has located, his ideal can then give his life to universal well-being. If we want to go further in this country and in our organizations, let us put aside differences and divisions. Cohesion will enable us to survive and advance our country. So many times in the jail, if you did not support me by shouting “justice” I will never be released. Parents, I ask you to send your children to school, to the University, that they follow training that will serve for the emergence of the country, “he hammered.
