A week of tension between Zambian and Congolese naval forces on the border of Moliro




Tension has been observed for a week between the Zambian and Congolese naval forces on the border of Moliro, 400 km in Moba territory southeast of Kalemie (Tanganyika). According to local sources, this tension was caused by the tracking of Congolese fishermen who use prohibited mesh nets. The Tanganyika provincial government has just dispatched the provincial interior minister to Zambia.
According to a witness, Congolese fishermen hunted in Moba territory have found refuge in Zambia to carry out their fishing activities on Lake Tanganyika, which shares the two countries.
“The Zambian soldiers came to Kibanga-Zambia to tell the fishermen to return to the Congo. To return to the Congo, the fishermen are afraid of the Congolese soldiers who are in Kibanga-Congo. Zambian soldiers took speedboats from Zambia to Kibanga-Congo. They wanted to force the Congolese soldiers out by force; they stole the Congolese flag. They started to confront each other, "he said.
MPP Jean Manda says the problem has never been resolved for several years.
"Can a foreign force easily enter our country and take the insignia of the country, the flag? This is very serious. We never managed to solve the Kapingu problem, on the Moliro side in Moba. The population never returned several years ago because the Zambian army intervened. Who are we ? "He wonders.
The provincial interior minister arrived in the Zambian capital Lusaka last Thursday for peace talks between the two Zambian and Congolese territories
