Catholic Bishop of BUNIA bitter on the possible balkanisation of DRC deemed to start in KIVU and ITURI

During his lecture this Sunday, May 2020, 31, the Bishop of the Catholic diocese of Bunia in Ituri did not mince words to denounce what he describes as an "international plan of balkanization of the Congo".

According to the Catholic bishop, those fighting in Ituri, especially in Djugu and Irumu, are used to materialize this plan to occupy indigenous lands and exploit Congolese natural riches, including the oil of Lake Albert.

" Let no one cheat on you, do you know why we die every day in Djugu? It's because of the balkanization said Archbishop Dieudonné Uringi in front of thousands of his followers.

And add: "I was in Germany, I was shown a map that divided our country into 4 states".

To the Hema and Lendu, the main conflicting tribes in the territory of Djugu, Bishop Dieudonné Uringi calls to stop killing each other.

" The Hema and the Lendu we are at risk of being slaves of the people who come to occupy our lands. It may be that day that we will understand " warn the man of God.

Prennant the example of the Sudan which was divided after 30 years of endless geurres, the prelate wonder if South Sudan has now developed as the secessionist claimed.

" It took 30 years for the Sudan's division plan to succeed. These are the same ones who also want to balkanize our country. If we keep killing each other, we're going to regret it tomorrow he said.

Speaking of the other rebellion called FPIC based on the group Chini ya Kilima in the territory of Irumu, M. Uringi calls to stop tribalism, blaming some MPs and a remarkable Muslim from the middle of being at the base of this situation.

Very well known for his frank-speaking, Mr. Dieudonné Uringi has been engaged against the division of his country in the DRC for years.

On April 26, this prince of the church had held the same speech in front of thousands of his followers, calling the CODECO Militia to be used to realize the balkanization of the rd Congo.
