The controversy on Mr. "Joseph Kabila" had started from the moment he was presented to the people of Congo as the son of former president Laurent Desire Kabila; after his murder in 2001. The event raised a lot of eyebrows in the nation as none had previously heard about "Joseph Kabila" and as of today, his past is still unclear!

After the rigged election in 2011, more people became aware that "Joseph Kabila" was more of a problem to the Congolese nation.

In 2016, "Joseph Kabila" mandate had come to an end, his government had failed on all level including organizing election for a peaceful transition. Since then, the country has entered deep chaos. The current government doesn't have control of the nation anymore! One of the richest land in Africa, if not in the world is now functioning for a handful of people dwelling in stolen wealth while the D.R.C as a whole is falling deeper and deeper into poverty.

Several peaceful protest by Congolese have taken place often involving the catholic church to express their contempt on this oppressive and out of mandate government. Since then, unjust and unjustified arrests, and death has been multiplied.

People are out of their jobs and property, this nation once beautiful is becoming unbarable.
