The takeover of the DRC’s political institutions by supporters of President Félix-Antoine Tshisekedi’s Sacred Union is about to be complete. After the National Assembly, the last battle should be fought in the Senate, the last institution still led by a pro-Kabila.
At the end of a plenary held on Wednesday, February 3 and devoted to the election of members of the final bureau of the lower house of parliament, Christophe Mboso N’kodia Pwanga (79 years), single candidate and dean of the assembly, was elected with 389 votes out of 460 voters.
This election also comes a few days after the dismissal of Prime Minister Sylvestre Ilunga Ilunkamba, following the vote of a motion of censure against his government by the National Assembly, under the provisional presidency of Christophe Mboso.
The president of the Senate, the upper house of parliament, Alexis Thambwe Mwamba, who remains the last supporter of Joseph Kabila at the head of an institution in the DRC, should be the next target of this offensive of pro-Tshisekedi.
