A meeting held this Thursday, October 22, 2026, in Bukavu by the Vice-Presidents of the Front for the Refoundation of the Nation (FRN) featured an appearance that did not go unnoticed. The honorary Governor of South Kivu, Marcelin_Cishambo_Ruhoya, took part in this strategic meeting—held in the provincial capital—between Corneille_Nangaa and Bertrand Bisimwa, the movement’s Vice-Presidents, and other FRN officials. This participation confirms that the former provincial leader has joined the politico-military movement led by Joseph Kabila Kabange. A political heavyweight in South Kivu, Marcelin_Cishambo—who governed the province for over a decade under the Kabila regime—had remained out of the public eye since the fall of Bukavu. His presence alongside Corneille_Nangaa, former head of the CENI and leader of the AFC, and Bertrand_Bisimwa, president of the M23, sends a strong signal. It underscores the FRN’s ambition to broaden its political base and rally former stalwarts of the Kabila r...

  The Front pour la Refondation de la Nation (FRN) outlined its position in a six-page political declaration issued on Monday, October 12, following meetings held in Goma on October 10 and 11.
