DRC: Trial on a hospital bed...again! What does Mrs Mushobekwa has to say?

It is no secret, the Democratic Republic of Congo is facing a deep crisis; with its own government on the forefront/center of the issue!

Several peaceful protests have been organized but have always been brutally disrupted by the corrupted armed police and army forces; which instead of working for the Congolese people and protecting them, have chosen to dwell in the wrong doing and obey the illegitimate authority of the "Kabila' regime.

Several unjust arrests have taken place as a result of those active protest but also, and quite surprisingly for no logical reason at all; as we have seen with Mr Franck Diongo.

Mr. Franck Diongo Shamba is a

politician from DRC . He is a member of parliament for the Lukunga district at the National Assembly of the Congo-Kinshasa and President of the Progressive Lumumbist Movement (MLP), his political party.

In December 2016, after being tortured and obliged to go to trial during medical treatments, he was unjustly sentenced to 5 years of prison for "illegally detaining soldiers during a protest against the Kabila regime" (International Business Times).

After that episode, we thought this mediocre government wouldn't repeat what is perceived by most of the Congolese people as "none-sense". However, another leader of opposition is currently undergoing similar treatment.

Mr. Gerard Mulumba commonly known as "Gecoco" another politician whom just recently joined his forces to the the Union for Democracy and Social Progess (UDPS/Tshisekedi) a major political party of opposition against the "Kabila" regime.

After several days of detention and torture, He was obliged to undergo trial on his hospital bed!

People of Congo have several times heard and tolerated the lies from the mouth of their minister in charge of human rights in the country Mrs Marie-Ange Mushobekwa; claiming that the government is actively working for the well being of its population.

Is this a representation of a government working for the population? is this a way to serve and protect human rights in DRC?

In the words of Cardinal Laurent Mosengwo, the Democratic Republic of Congo demands that "the mediocre clears the way".
