AVZ Discussion 2022


By Jean-Chrysostome Luntadila

Never before has a member of the government been so targeted that his position has become the centre of all the interests of those who want him at his head.


Never before has a member of the government been as resilient as Princess Adèle Kayinda, unfazed like a baobab tree planted near a stream of water.

Bahati, the eternal frustrated attacks Adèle Kayinda?

Political stables have been on alert since the announcement of the imminent reshuffle of the Sama Lukonde government, made on Friday, January 13 by the President of the Republic Felix Tshisekedi during the meeting of the Council of Ministers. Also, they are in the process of fomenting low blows, spreading false and bad testimonies, politely threatening the highest authorities, especially Prime Minister Sama Lukonde, assured to keep his chair.

Modeste Bahati Lukwebo, President of the Senate and one of the main leaders of the Sacred Union of the Nation, the political family of the Head of State, has already moved in this direction.

"I recall that our majority is fragile and that out of respect for the Chief, we had agreed to the reduction of the quota of the AFDC-A to the government.

That in addition our 2 ministries (portfolio and economy) have been confiscated for a year. Our silence and obedience must be understood as a way of building cohesion rather than a weakness," Bahati warned in a letter that he would be the author, without concealing his "frustration" with the implementation made in mid-November by the President of the Republic in companies and public institutions as well as in the territory.

"We have cashed a lot in the series of proxies and territorial," he reportedly said, stressing that "a political family does not consolidate in frustrations."



Remarks that, without a doubt, reek of threat if not blackmail to obtain at all costs the departure of the Minister of State for the Portfolio, Adèle Kayinda.

Look, the moral authority of the AFDC-A has never forgiven the Minister of State for the Portfolio for the firmness she showed in the face of her advances, worthy of a fox, during the period of preparation of the lists for the implementation in companies and public institutions.



Sources close to the ministry revealed: "Bahati submitted to Ms. Kayinda a long list of his supporters to be cased in companies. The Commission made it clear to him that this was neither possible nor within his competence, and that the rules established from the outset should be adhered to."



An answer that "would not have pleased the old Maradona who wanted to dribble his peers of the Sacred Union". Since then, the President of the Senate swears on Kayinda's head, suggesting to anyone who will listen that this portfolio belongs to AFDC-A. Under what?



"It is up to the President of the Republic, through his discretionary power, to decide on the fate of each minister. Who to renew and who to dismiss," argued some observers of the political scene, trying to reframe Modeste Bahati Lukwebo.



*Alingete, upstream and downstream of Bahati*



Poisoned arrows targeting Adèle Kayinda also emanate from Jules Alingete, Inspector General of Finance Head of Service. The latter undertook to claim his head long before Bahati. The two personalities, if they have not chorus until proven otherwise, they pursue, said our fine bloodhounds, the same objective: "the departure of Kayinda from the government".



Alingete and Bahati, they continued, have been joined in this fight by some governors, interested in the Ministry of the Portfolio to take it easy and prepare more serenely for the electoral jousts that are increasingly on the horizon.



"What could be more logical than to rest hopes on Jules Alingete and his machine of financial inspectors to bother the Kayinda min'state and make it bear the blame for the crimes it has never committed," our bloodhounds have understood.



Indeed, Jules Alingete made a pact with a group of 12 NGOs which, in early December 2022, accused the Minister of State for the Portfolio, Princess Adèle Kayinda, of diverting and selling off the heritage of the Congolese mining company (COMMINIERE).



"Gratuitous accusations made without evidence attesting to the personal involvement of Princess Adèle Kayinda," was answered in the entourage of the Min'Etat to the Portfolio.



The same persons explained that with regard to COMMINIERE, investigations were carried out both by the IGF and by other authorized public structures, reports prepared and presented to the Prime Minister for assessment and for necessary decisions.



"None of these investigations concluded on the involvement of the person of Adèle Kayinda in the sale of the heritage of COMMINIERE," they said, deploring the call for the dismissal of Kayinda launched by this group of NGOs, accused of being in the pay of Jules Alingete.



"The President of the Republic is not fooled. He sees everything. He knows everything. He knows that one of his Warriors, who is doing her job well, is the subject of low blows. But, he will decide in soul and conscience for the interest of Congo and not for the pleasure of a group of embittered and power-hungry for power," other analysts argued.



Meanwhile, Adele Kayinda, whose eyes are constantly on the God she serves as Deaconess, is quiet in her office, continuing to show bravery in leading the program of deep restructuring of state-owned enterprises to make them more efficient than ever.
Picture in your mind’s eye two Game of Thrones characters conversing. Now re-read the above as if spoken by those characters. It makes much more sense,

If you don’t, it’s just gobbledegook...

Tell me I’m wrong.

Why of course? Cominiere aren't exactly thrilled with AVZ, why would they consent to the involvement of AVZ's lawyers?

The arbitration case being discussed in these tweets is around the stripping of MMCS' licence way back when before AVZ were involved. Sure they may now be trying to claw a piece of Dathcom from Cominiere as a recent gambit for compensation but we aren't a claimant nor respondent in these proceedings.

I'm not sure how you expect the lawyers of a party not directly involved in the arbitration to file a motion to dismiss or to seek costs. Where'd you pick up that legal background?

Naaaaaah. Their not involved??

I'm not sure what you're pointing to on their website. My understanding was that they wouldn't be involved in addressing the arbitration proceedings between MMCS and Cominiere, but if you've found something suggesting otherwise then do advise us. I'm interested to see if I'm mistaken

Jesus mate you'd need a 6 tf diameter pipe for all these turds to wash through. And even then i reckon Kong and Co would still be stuck to the sides.

Forget about the MMCS V Comineire ICC case, today's best twitter viewing is an all out mudslinging match between "uprampers" and a bunch of "downrampers".

Nigel mentioned they will be reviewing the finances every 3 months, is that something that would usually be announced or just boardroom chat only?

*Slightly negative post

Something similar to this would have been greatly appreciated if it was done not long after we were put into suspension. A One for all and all for one mentality would certainly have had me firmly behind these guys knowing they have taken the initiative to in some way place themselves in with us shareholders 'suffering' to a degree. So far it is just us shareholders taking the full force of the hit heading into 12 months of suspension.

The United States Releases Signed Memorandum of Understanding with the Democratic Republic of Congo and Zambia to Strengthen Electric Vehicle Battery Value Chain

Today, the Department of State released the signed Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) on electric vehicle battery value chains signed by the United States on December 13, 2022, during the Africa Leaders Summit.

Through this MOU, the United States will support the commitment between the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Zambia to develop jointly a supply chain for electric vehicle batteries.

The MOU supports the DRC and Zambia’s goal of building a productive supply chain, from the mine to the assembly line, while also committing to respect international standards to prevent, detect, and take legal action to fight corruption throughout this process.​
