Did Joseph Kabila and John Numbi met in Harare to plan a war on Kinshasha?

 Joseph Kabila and John Numbi met yesterday in Harare, Zimbabwe.

After the Kampala, Uganda, meeting, which failed due to Museveni refusing to allow his country to serve as a base to overthrow Kisangani, Joseph Kabila and John Numbi met yesterday in Harare, Zimbabwe, where they have set up their base. The duo intends to recruit Bakata-Katanga to attack Greater Katanga and force negotiations on Félix Tshisekedi.

M23 and DRC talks that were meant for Doha has flopped

The AFC/M23 rebels, who currently occupy Goma, Bukavu, and large areas in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, have set several preconditions they describe as "confidence-building measures" for initiating negotiations with the Congolese government while the two delegations are currently in Doha, Qatar.

These conditions, they say, are aimed at creating an environment conducive to peace talks, facilitated by Doha, as part of the mediation to resolve the security crisis in the region.

Among these required measures:

1. AFC/M23 requires a solemn declaration from Félix Tshisekedi publicly committing to direct dialogue with the AFC/M23.

2. The repeal of the National Assembly resolution of November 8, 2022, against the mixing, blending, or integration of armed groups within the defense and security forces.

3. The annulment of death sentences, prosecutions, and arrest warrants against AFC/M23 leaders and officials, as well as the release of civilian and military detainees arrested or accused of colluding with the AFC/M23.

4. In addition to these measures, the rebellion intends to see Kinshasa end and criminalize hate speech and acts of discrimination against communities and denial of nationality to certain communities.

Summary 

The AFC/M23 refuses to participate in the dialogue initially planned with the Congolese government in Doha, Qatar, and sets its conditions before any dialogue;

1. Solemn declaration by Mr. Felix Ishisekedi expressing his regime's political will to conduct direct negotiations with the AFC/M23.

2. Repeal of the National Assembly resolution of November 8, 2022, and all other restrictive measures taken by the Kinshasa regime against the AFC/M23 to allow for the holding and successful conclusion of political negotiations.

3. Cancellation of all death sentences, prosecutions, and arrest warrants, and the offer of a reward to anyone who assists the Kinshasa regime in arresting AFC/M23 leaders and cadres, thereby enabling political negotiations to take place.

4. Immediate release of all civilians or military personnel arrested and/or accused of colluding with the AFC/M3 because of their appearance or ethnicity, or of their professional, friendly, or business relationships with members of the AFC/M23.

5. End and criminalize all hate speech, often followed by acts of oppression and cannibalism, as well as all manhunts launched against Congolese people because of their appearance or the language they speak (Swahili, Kinyarwanda) under the pretext of collaboration with the AFC/M23 or of being Rwandan infiltrators. End all acts of discrimination and denial of nationality against the aforementioned communities.

Signing of a bilateral ceasefire agreement between the Kinshasa regime and the AFC/M23.

For its part, Kinshasa demands an unconditional ceasefire, including the withdrawal of the AFC/M23 rebellion from Bukavu, Goma, and elsewhere.

The military governor of North Kivu requests the identification of all Goma government officials who have arrived in the city of Beni, the temporary headquarters of provincial institutions.

In his telegram to his local authorities, he requests that checks be conducted on these officials to identify those who participated in the M23's ideological training before traveling there.

It should be noted that the M23 rebels, having taken control of the city of Goma, have indicated that only those who have already participated in the ideological training will work in their administration, a training that several officials took in order to keep their positions.

Earhart Turner Wins $5 Million Contract with the DRC

 

 Earhart Turner, a new lobbying and public relations firm, has landed a six-month, $5 million contract with the Democratic Republic of Congo, less than a month after opening. The firm will represent the Central African nation in a historic partnership aimed at strengthening the DRC's global influence.

Karen Giorno, a prominent figure in American politics with 35 years of experience advising U.S. presidents and first ladies, was tapped by Congolese President Félix Tshisekedi at a critical moment. The terrorist incursion into the Congo from neighboring Rwanda already constitutes one of the most devastating and bloody Christian genocides in history.

Earhart Turner LLC brings Trumpian tenacity to the Washington, D.C. lobbying scene. Giorno is joined by Senior Partner Milo Yiannopoulos, a veteran media executive who co-authored 17 New York Times bestsellers. “With my 30 years of political success, including campaigns for President Trump, and Milo’s media expertise, we offer a refreshing alternative to the traditional K Street firms left behind by the Trump era,” said Giorno.

Earhart Turner’s DRC deal propels Karen Giorno overnight to the ranks of Washington, D.C.’s top lobbyists. Ronald D. Coleman is joining the firm as General Counsel from Dhillon Law Group. Hassan A. Sheikh, a compliance and campaign finance expert, joined the firm as a Junior Partner today.

Clovis Munihire joins M23!

 

Clovis Munihire Maheshe, former provincial coordinator of the Disarmament, Demobilization, Community Recovery, and Stabilization Program (P-DDRCS) in North Kivu, recently turned his back on the Kinshasa regime to join the Congo River Alliance (AFC-M23).

After completing his ideological training in Rumangabo, he is now a close collaborator of Corneille Nanga, coordinator of the AFC-M23.

He was arrested at the Grande Barrière in Goma while attempting to transport his assistant, Thomas d'Acquin Muiti Luanda, into enemy territory to impose the M23 ideology on him. Thomas, a former president of North Kivu's civil society, is known for his anti-Rwandan stance.
