Corruption provides funding for armed conflicts, denounces the Minister of State for Justice

The Minister of State in charge of Justice, Rose Mutombo, denounced corruption as a means of financing armed conflicts, in her message, Thursday, to the Nation on the occasion of the International Day for the fight against this scourge.

“Corruption fuels conflict and hampers peace processes by undermining the rule of law, deepening poverty, facilitating the illicit use of resources and funding armed conflict,” she said.

"Corruption, it cannot be said enough, promotes the diversion of funds intended for essential services such as health care, education, access to drinking water, sanitation and housing and thus prevents the State to guarantee the most vulnerable better access to basic social services, thereby promoting exclusion, a potential source of instability and conflict,” added Minister Rose Mutombo.

She also noted that it is a major obstacle to development, which has a negative impact on the various sectors of a country's life.

International Anti-Corruption Day is celebrated on December 9 every year.

The theme chosen for the year 2022 is: "Uniting the world against corruption for development, peace and security", it is reported.

Established by Resolution 58/4 of the United Nations General Assembly of October 31, 2003, this day is dedicated on the one hand to raising public awareness of the evils of corruption and, on the other hand, to questioning public authorities on their roles and responsibilities in the fight against this scourge.

A legal and institutional framework to fight corruption

In addition, the Minister of State in charge of Justice Rose Mutombo stressed that the DRC has been engaged for years in the fight against corruption thanks to a legal and institutional framework intended to fight it.

"The President of the Republic, Félix Tshisekedi has clearly demonstrated, since his accession to the supreme magistracy, his unshakable will to fight against this scourge by the creation of the Agency for the Prevention and Fight against Corruption, the revitalization of the General Inspectorate of Finance and the Court of Auditors, the establishment of the Coordination for Changing Mentalities and the Business Climate Unit within the Presidency of the Republic,” she said.

The synergy of these institutions with existing ones such as the Observatory for the Monitoring of Corruption and Professional Ethics (OSCEP), the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) and the National Financial Intelligence Unit, are a guarantee of hope for the eradication of corruption in the country, she added.

Finally, Rose Mutombo urged state officials, at whatever level, to commit to reducing corruption by adopting an exemplary code of ethics and by having the courage to take disciplinary measures to banish impunity.

To non-State actors, particularly civil society organizations in all their diversity, she recommended investing in raising awareness against impunity and corruption, while inviting judicial actors to fully fulfill their role to severely punish the perpetrators of these despicable acts.

I agree with you Chilla except that the top three shareholders are Chinese, then Nigel’s up there somewhere and I don’t see the Boss or the Chiropractor wanting an EGM so I doubt we would get one.

Aside from that I think it would be a waste of time…. but frankly I don’t give a farken shit when it comes to us exposing our executive team’s arrogance and failure to be upfront with shareholders on this or any other public forum

The truth is it won’t make any difference to our case in the DRC no matter what people say. All we are saying is that they treat us with contempt, not the people of the DRC.

Nigel himself looked me in the eye and tried to mislead me and others in Sydney, just because I knew why didn’t make it right. There is a lack of openness and integrity that no one can deny…. Just acknowledge it to shareholders and everyone will move on

I own FFX who have also been in suspension for months and the other day they sent us all a letter apologising for our situation and expressing an understanding of shareholders position along with a dedication to moving forward in a way that would provide shareholders with the best outcome they could.

It wouldn’t have hurt Nigel to do that rather than a travelling roadshow telling shareholders the ML would drop on the 15/11/22.

And @BEISHA, either everyone who knows is too scared to put it out there or there’s some other reason, but me I’m beyond giving a shit so I’ll just say it…. Cong has something over the President

FARKEN

EGM talk imo is pissing in the wind, like you point out likely a waste of time even if the odds were beaten.

I do think our management are playing the right game ATM in keeping their cards close to the chest, eyes are on us as the roadshows proved, a reason I imagine it's taken this long to take Cong to ICC could be they were trying to get the right authorities to sort it out without going to the wonderfully slow ICC, but as Congs corrupt tentacles spread too far. Now it'll be plan k I assume in going through the ICC, while applying pressure to get them to drop their 'claims'. Which probably will happen at the last moment possible (in keeping with their shitfuckery)

The problem is/was the global Covid-19 BS has allowed the cockroaches to really up their play without much resistance/knowledge from our side (which would be a dropped ball by Balthazar & Serge & also the boss by simple fact he is the boss), by the time we realised what was going on it was an uphill battle against a tidal wave of poorly written propaganda. Sadly, it seems communication was not as constant as it should have been, else we wouldn't have found ourselves in such a pile of pineapples.

We are now in the 'final assault' phase of our fight with facts, and we are finally seeing results like pricks arrested and MOP, Dathomir and Cominiere IGF report. But more should come.....

For us to progress, more has to happen to force Congs hand from within Government, also Zijin to drop the case too. IGF hopefully is/has worked on both after finding out the BS they have pulled in regard to Manono. Pull on a thread type situation.

Mupande has gone quiet and WTF is he STILL doing there? CAMI are our immediate block to the ML.

Felix has to have a little rummage around and see if he can locate some testicular fortitude as Jules Alingete (he is a godsend for DRC) seems to be doing ALL the work while Felix keeps quiet, nope its worse than that Felix says to the youth in a speech "my ministers aren't corrupt, show me proof and I will act", Motherfucker WHAT ! Jules is literally throwing that proof in your face, along with other diligent DRC journalists. Tip of the hat to Franck and Kiki

I agree @MoneyBags1348 that Cong has something on Felix but I think its bigger, its the Kabila Cabal that have something on Felix with Mupande, Adele, Loando, Kabila himself and even Cong still running around freely instead of in a concrete cell.
Felix has been fucking about flying everywhere for a few years now. Meanwhile election day is approaching fast and Kabila has said he will run again (Fuck Kabila). If Felix was serious about corruption he would have reached out and worked with the US long ago to clear out some of the big players. I realise its a game of politics and careful even delicate moves must be made as each one has an effect elsewhere with many many corrupt players within Government thanks to Kabilas reign, but FFS come on why move so late. Its almost as if its just for show, I hope that's my cynical side coming out and not Felix taking a lesson from western politics.

I'm wondering if while this shit is going on Zijin offer a slightly less derisory TO offer, once they don't get our cut up tenement that is, I imagine CAMI prick has been trying to auction it off to the highest bidder, AJN, Dathomir and Zijin all rolling around like pigs in the mud for what's ours all along.


Would you look at that, a whole bunch of words and fuck all to show for it

My apologies,

Have a good weekend everyone

They speak, but do not know that Justice has already arrested those responsible for the Cominiere, while they are the intellectual and main authors that the others pay in prison.

Sounds to me like the CEO and technical director of Cominiere have flipped

About that woman that should be the new cami DG since 3 years.....


One important sentence:

The handover and resumption with his predecessor Jean-Félix Mupande has always been postponed for unknown reasons on the instructions of Prime Minister Sama Lukonde

I just thought Franck's take was interesting as someone in country that's usually ready to jump on any crook.

Totally Agree
The Prime Minister is the real snake.
How can the DG of Cami remain in power?
Prime Minister elects positions/ ministers .
Time for FT to act on this .

 

[The Fox]

Food for thought

Hey Sam

Maybe are more specific question can be asked of Franck regarding the PM’s relationship with DG of CAMI if this narrative is worth exploring. I remember some press articles around the support of the PM for Zijin and even Franck says PM has the power to remove DG of CAMI yet does nothing.

Cheers The Fox

Posting this article as the last few sentences are particularly of interest to me. Yes the PM has a dodgy history and was appointed by Felix to end some power wars and form Government. Snake for sure IMO.

PS. Doesn’t the PM and Princess make a lovely power couple.

The Prime Minister, Jean-Michel Sama Lukonde, closed on Wednesday, July 06 in Kinshasa, the 4th phase of the work of the Joint Technical Commission responsible for the reform of the mode of management of water and electricity consumption of official bodies and beneficiaries.​

In his speech, the Head of Government congratulated the Minister of State in charge of the Portfolio, Adèle Kahinda Mayina, and all the members of the said Commission for downed Work. He also welcomed the relevance of the recommendations made by this Interinstitutional Commission, which, according to him, meet the "People First" vision advocated by President Félix Tshisekedi.

"As my capacity as head of government, I often wonder about the expected performance of these two companies, in the face of the important portfolio of unpaid amounts arising from the consumption of water and electricity of the official bodies and beneficiaries. It is in this capacity that I appreciate, at their true value, the recommendations of the Joint Technical Commission and encourage the Minister of State, Minister of the Portfolio, to continue in the same momentum, in order to achieve, with the help of those responsible for the sector, to the consolidation of the finances of the Portfolio companies, "said Sama Lukonde.

Among the recommendations made and which will lead to the payment of state claims due to the Régie de Distribution d'Eau (REGIDESO) and the Société Nationale d'Électricité (SNEL), the Minister of the Portfolio said she noted "with satisfaction" the urgency of the signing of the interministerial decree to determine the eligibility criteria for the assumption by the Public Treasury of

- The outright removal of the notion of entitled person;

- The payment by beneficiaries of housing at the expense of the Public Treasury, bills for their water and electricity consumption;

- The failure of the Public Treasury to cover the water and electricity consumption of buildings housing political institutions, public services and public institutions under the provinces and decentralized territorial entities (TDS);

- The unequivocal fixing of the list of beneficiaries of the coverage of water and electricity consumption.

In addition, Princess Adèle Kahinda Mayina praised the quality and reliability of the results of the said work of the Joint Technical Commission.

"The quality and reliability of the results achieved by your work are undeniable; therefore, please receive with pride all my sincere congratulations for your assiduity and spirit of self-sacrifice. We remain convinced that, through this work, the expectations of the Government of the Republic are fundamental: there are not only the interests of the Republic, but also of these two companies of which the State happens to be the sole shareholder, "she said.

In conclusion, recalled this member of the government, the initiative of this Interinstitutional Commission "debactly comes from the stated desire of the Government of the Republic to find an effective and sustainable solution to the thorny problem that calls into question the very principle of the continuity of operations of our two companies in the State Portfolio, with the management of water and electricity consumption of official bodies and beneficiaries

It should be noted that this Commission was composed in particular of delegates from the Presidency, the Primature, the Ministries of Budget, Finance, Portfolio and Hydraulic Resources, and the Superior Council of the Portfolio. It was created since September 2015, on the initiative of the Prime Minister who instructed the Ministry of the Portfolio to set up a regular cross-payment mechanism for reciprocal debts and debts between the State and these Portfolio companies.
