Considered as the door to paradise for the Congolese, the Chinese contract, through SICOMINE, turned out to be the route to hell after the investigations carried out by the General Inspectorate of Finance, under the leadership of Jules Alingete as Head of Service.
In an interview delivered to the RTNC, the latter indicated that by visiting this Chinese contract, it is easy to discover that with his pen, the Congolese intellectual can kill thousands of Congolese and remains an enemy of development.
With this Chinese contract, it is well established that the country was not plundered by illiterates but by intellectuals. These crooked intellectuals, when signing this contract, put provisions that make their claims difficult.
There are provisions which say, for example, that in the event of a conflict, foreign courts remain competent.
With this behavior of the Congolese intellectual, the Democratic Republic of Congo will be condemned for free for having trained people who then stabbed her in the back. And yet, these intellectuals, who must realize that they should be "lights" for society and not "weapons" of mass destruction.
For his part, the president of ODEP and member of Congolese civil society, Florimond Muteba, who also spoke following the audience granted to him by Jules Alingete, recalled that through this contract, the SICOMINE should execute the mining part, etc.
Faced with the controversies created by the contract, civil society was obliged to intervene in order to support the IGF in protecting the interests of the Congolese people. Because, no one is unaware that the mining sector represents a bit of everything for the Congolese. And, the controversy aroused could not leave civil society indifferent.
Given the damage, the nationalization of this SICOMINE was requested.
17 billion dollars were at stake to earn only about 300,000,000 dollars with overbilling as in the case of the 50th anniversary hospital.
This is how the idea of a review was accepted by the government with the establishment of a joint commission, in which ODEP also participated.
Since March 2023 to this month of August, there has been silence, despite the President of the Republic's trip to China.
Although difficult, the negotiations with the Chinese side could lead to good results, estimated the president of the ODEP after talks with Jules Alingete.
Optimism confirmed by the Inspector General of Finance, who indicated that the two Heads of State, Congolese and Chinese, have asked that the negotiations, which have already been held for three months, can take place in a fraternal atmosphere and in silence, for a win-win partnership.
What you have to remember is that the task is not easy when you have to start from a base where there was a winner on one side and a loser on the other. One element that has caused the delay is the fact that the negotiations no longer hold together with stray threads or puppets.
Today, the Congolese government, under the leadership of Félix Tshisekedi, wants the country's interests to be preserved.
