Why Celestine Tiguan ya kasende,DRC minister of Justice was arrested?






Celestine Tiguan ya kasende was born in Bukavu on July 21, 1954. Originally from Lubao, a former district of Kabinda, which has become a province of la Lomami, he is married to Madame Julielle Kasongo mbiye.
He studied at the Athénée Royale in Bukavu, then humanities at the College of the Holy Spirit of the Jesuits in Bujumbura, where he obtained his state diploma in 1975, in 1984 he obtained a degree in Public Law at the University of Kinshasa.

Last night,A dozen police officers camped in front of the home of Congolese Minister of Justice, Célestin Tiguan ya Kasende, in Kinshasa. "A mandate to bring" was issued against him by the Attorney General at the Court of Cassation, confirmsc a police source.
However, still according to this source, Minister Tiguan did not "agreed" to follow the police. " He locked himself in his house. He denounced a violation of the procedure, explaining that before he is arrested, the National Assembly must be able to lift its immunity.
According to our reports, his arrest follows the opening of a judicial process in flagrancy against Minister Célestin Tiguan. On friday during the Council of Ministers, it was established that the latter sent an opinion on behalf of the government to the National Assembly, without having informed its hierarchy.
During the Council of Ministers on Friday, June 26th in Kinshas led by President Félix Tshisekedi, a subject has opposed government ministers. These are the controversial laws of FCC Minaku and Sakata. According to our reports, the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister in charge of Justice Célestin Tiguan ya Kasende had just started the debates around these laws before one of his colleagues challenged it. " Mr. President [of the Republic], the Minister of Justice is laughing at you], said the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Budget, Jean-Baudoin Mayo, whose words are reported by two ministers who took part to the Council of Ministers.
Like several ministers from the cach coalition, Jean-Baudoin Mayo then points out to the head of state that the laws under discussion are already being handled by Minister Tiguan, who has already sent the government's opinions to the National Assembly. " In turn, President Félix Tshisekedi, shocked, returns to the Minister of Justice to confirm the facts. The latter did not deny it, the head of state preferred to leave the video conference, regret that there is a lack of sincerity. He also asked that this incident be recorded in the report ", explains a minister who required anonymity.
The National Assembly had before the government to give its opinion on these three proposals of laws which are widely challenged by both the opposition and the presidential party, udps. However, in a letter dated June 20, 18, the Minister of Justice delivered the opinions to the National Assembly "on behalf of the government". In his letter, where he copy Prime Minister Sylvestre ilunkamba , he says he gives "the opinion" of the government, while the same topic is expected to be discussed at the Government Council this Friday, June 26
Speaking after the departure of the head of state, Prime Minister Sylvestre ilunkamba quickly closed the debates in a fish tail. There is no doubt that the chapter will continue in the next few hours. Content URLs link a link to the content you want to post on your website.

In the evening, the famous letter and proposals from the Minister of Justice surfaced on social media. Some opponents, who would denounce the Minaku-Sakata law, have denounced the fact that Minister Célestin Tiguan also passes the Council of Ministers to give his opinions on behalf of the government. " The Minister of Justice has committed a serious fault to Parliament on controversial proposals by the Government on controversial proposals, and the Minister of Justice has committed a serious fault in the duties of his office. Trust is broken, he will either resign or be removed ", said MP Claudel Lubaya on Twitter.
For its part, the Congolese Human Rights Association calls for prosecutions against Minister Célestin Tiguan. " The acaj calls on the Attorney General near the Court of Cassation to open an urgent criminal investigation into the conditions in which the VPM TUNDA sent the Assembly opinions, on behalf of the Government, on behalf of the Government, on the 3 MINAKU texts, then that he had never ruled it ", says his president Deep.
At the Cabinet of Minister Tiguan, it is insane that the minister tried to do anything without the government's knowledge. " There was no question of doing this action at the government's government because the prime minister, head of government, was in copy and the Deputy Minister of Justice (of member)... so this transmission took place in full transparency ", explains a member of the cabinet of this minister from Joseph Kabila's coalition.
In these three legislative proposals, Members Garry Sakata and Aubin Minaku propose, among other things, a conference of prosecutor s' conference as a forum for dialogue and exchange. It will, according to the proposal, be chaired by the Minister of Justice. One of the texts discusses the procedure for the Minister of Justice against the prosecutor's office. This is one of the proposals that upset the opposition. The two elected officials propose that the guard of the seals, which is no other than Minister Célestin Tiguan, have the opportunity to report a fault committed by a judge. However, to suspend, suspend or blame the latter would remain the responsibility of the Supreme Council of the Judges. In protest, udps militants, the party of Félix Tshisekedi, have shown on the edge of the People's Palace, the headquarters of the Congolese Parliament, on Monday and Tuesday. Some vehicles, including those of a MP, have been sent. Police had to step in with tear gas to restore order.

What Emmanuel shadry and his party had to say on his arrest?
The senior officials of the People's Party for Reconstruction and Democracy (pprd) have shown unprecedented solidarity with one of their, Célestin Tiguan ya Kasende who had just been arrested, audition and released.
Barely learned of the arrest of the Minister of Justice, many of them landed before the court of Cassation, at the prosecutor's office where the minister and their colleague of the party, Célestin Tiguan ya Kasende.
It could be seen Aubin Minaku, Ramazani Shadary, the permanent secretary of the pprd, Jaynet Kabila, National MP and Chairman of the Defense and Security Committee, Félix Kabange Numbi, Evariste Boshab, Aubin Minaku, Geneviève Ibagosi, Moses Ekanga, Mbuyu, an advice from the honorary president Henry Mova Sakanyi, Colette Tshomba,.. all called for the freedom of a minister for whom they denounce an arbitrary arrest.
In any case, there is evidence that the pressure that the main party of one of the power groups has paid. Otherwise, the pressure with which the minister was arrested, he should not be so easily released. We were already talking about a trial in flagrancy and even the verdict would come out this very night.
Was there justice or it was the pressure and influence of the former presidential party that took it away. We'll definitely know.
On the other hand, at the end of the hearing, Minister Tiguan headed, with his party mates, at the permanent service.
Very angry, Emmanuel Ramazani Shadary said that there is no one who can bully them. In fact, he promises to release an action schedule this Sunday to block the road to what they call a dictatorship.
Célestin Tiguan, Vice-Prime Minister, Minister of Justice and seal rank was arrested this Saturday's evening on instructions from the General Attorney General near the Court of Cassation. This one was accused of fake and using fake.

 "It is neither a judge nor a president of the Republic, but it was Tiguan who instructed the prosecutor about the 100-day trials" (Shadary)
vital Kamerhe during the trial says "100 days"
Emmanuel Ramazani Shadary, Permanent Secretary of the pprd, the party of former President Joseph Kabila, was back this Saturday at the headquarters of his political formation, following the arrest of Célestin Tiguan Ya Kasende, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Justice and Guard of the seals.
For him, Tiguan could not undergo this treatment as he is on the front line in the requests that have resulted in the so-called "100 days" trials.
" We are for the rule of law. They talked here about the 100 day trial. The deputy prime minister educated the prosecutor's office to investigate this case ", he said.
According to him, all the honour goes to the Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Justice and Guard of the Seals.
" This is neither a judge nor a president of the republic. Minister Tiguan did this for the rule of law to rule in this country ", he added.
As a reminder, this Saturday, vital Kamerhe has been sentenced to 20 years of forced labor, in addition to accessory sentences, including the ban on access to any public office, for the 10 years following the end of his sentence of prison of freedom.
Justice had also sentenced Benjamin Wanga and Fulgence Lobota Bamaros, Director General of the Office of Roads and Drainage (OVD) and the National Road Maintenance Fund (FONER) to three of the forced labor. They had been found guilty of misappropriation of public money. For his part, Modest Makabuza, boss of Congolese construction company (SOCOC) was given a year of forced labor. He was found guilty of complicity in abuse.
Emmanuel Ramazani Shadary, Permanent Secretary of the pprd, former President Joseph Kabila's party, sent a message to Cape for Change (cach) about the future of their coalition. He remembered the position displayed since the beginning of this week by his political formation: the pprd no longer rule out co-existence with camp Tshisekedi.
" We repeat it today with strength. They say it's not right to go in coalition with us. We are sure they say anything in front of their militants, even of. Everyone knows the truth of what happened. They tell of of ", he said at the headquarters of the pprd after the release of Célestin Tiguan Ya Kasende, Deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Justice and Guard of the Seals.
And he goes further:
" If they no longer want the coalition, we have said it loud and clear that we are heading towards the Constitution consequences. This means setting up co-existence and that the FCC manages the Republic and FCC will be responsible for its actions in front of the people ".
Still this week, Augustin Kabuya, General Secretary a. i of udps, did not seem intimidated by this position. He also mentioned what he sees as "hypocrisy on the part of the FCC".
" Since we've been in this coalition. Everything they pose as an act doesn't reassure anyone. We did 7 months to form the government. There's a problem ", he said.
And add:
" They are in a logic to take us into a distraction. We saw it again during the talks for public company leaders ".
He even announces that it is considering giving "a word of order" if the FCC does not withdraw the bills .

From yesterday morning I have been trying to contact a lot of my contemporaries with an aim of trying to understand what is really behind CODECO,it seems thus militia group is deep rooted in the societies of Ituri,but the biggest question is"does the DRC gorvenment know this?what does MONUSCO exhaustively say about CODECO?? Has FARDC failed to uproot them?
...This is what happened in the night of Friday to Saturday.....

Civil society in chiefdom of Bahema Badgere, Djugu territory reports 12 civilians killed in attacks attributed to CODECO militiamen, between Friday and Saturday June 27, 2020.
“Around 3 pm on Friday, in the village, they killed 4 people including the village chief and a midwife who works in a local health center, before also injuring 1 man. The night of that same Friday to Saturday, they attacked the villages of Kodjo and Mbata where they killed 8 people "as  reported by Molodra Désiré, coordinator of this citizen structure.
Mr. Molodra pleads for a sufficient deployment of FARDC soldiers in certain villages such as Goba and Nzalda where there is no presence of the police.
However ,up to now,the FARDC army has not yet given more substantiated information about this attack,but the civilians confirmed the attack.
The militia of CODECO active for 3 years in the province of Ituri, multiplied atrocities against the civil populations which made several hundreds of deaths since the beginning of the current year, acts that the criminal court international ICC describes as "likely to constitute war crimes and crimes against humanity".

LUCHA calls for investigations on the killings by ADF-NALU and CODECO in ITURI

LUCHA, Lutte pour le Changement, expresses its deep concern at the deterioration of security in Ituri and North Kivu. Crimes that should not go unpunished.
In a press briefing held this Friday June 26, 2020 in Bunia, this citizen movement, in a series of recommendations to international and national decision-makers, suggests opening an international investigation to identify and punish the perpetrators of these serious crimes in two provinces.
"An independent, impartial, transparent and swift international investigation is needed to establish the facts and the responsibility for the killings, mutilations, kidnappings, destruction and looting perpetrated in the Beni region and in Ituri since the recent wave of violence. This investigation should focus in particular on the identification of the actors in the massacres and other serious acts, on the role of the Congolese civil and military authorities (…) "read their press release.
Beyond the judicial aspect, this civic structure through its communication unit in Ituri, also wishes efforts on the security, humanitarian and reconciliation levels.
"There is an urgent need to establish an international military force, reinforced in troops and resources, with the mandate of ensuring the effective protection of civilians, tracking down the perpetrators of the massacres, and stabilizing Ituri and Beni on the model of the Artémis operation in 2003 ”.
In Ituri, since 2017, the mystical-religious movement of CODECO has been the source of insecurity in Djugu and Mahagi. The Beni region of North Kivu is insecure due to the activism of the ADF / NALU rebels nearly 6 years ago, where civilians are killed and abducted, houses burned and looted.
In the two provinces, the humanitarian situation remains precarious with a very high number of displaced people, sometimes without any assistance.
A few days ago, the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC), Fatou Bensouda, expressed concern about investigating the atrocities of Djugu and Mahagi, in Ituri.

Among the sectors hard hit by Corona pandemic is education!! In our country,Students and pupils are at this time not sure if they will continue with their education this year.However,the gorvenment has assured the country of the commencement of schools in coming month.The most hardly hit in this sector are childrenbof poor people and those from poor villages where it has been too hard to access education means that can be readily available and availed to students and pupils from rich families and urban areas.The issue using TVs and radios to carry out teaching or revisions is more favourable to students in rich families and from urban areas.Even if it was the accessiblity of learning materials over the Internet,this again favours the students from rich families and those from towns due to the reasons you all know.There has been a feeling that even the enforcement of covid19 directives was more harsh in these upcountry areas than in towns,and as a result parents and students were and are not in condusive modes and moods to carry on individual studies.
We have seen government instill measures and carry on education programs on Radios and ts or via the internet,but all this only favours the students from urban area and from rich families to a bigger extent!!!
