A motion of no confidence which flopped, the fight around the CENI which dragged on, the FCC-Union Sacrée war which became permanent, are the main subjects developed in the Kinshasa press.
In
Le Maximum
, under the title "
RAMGATE: Politics and reason
", an article from this newspaper once close to the FCC and since passed to the Sacred Union of the Nation where one can read: "
The plenary of the National Assembly devoted to the follow-up to the arrest of the UDPS Minister of Posts, Telephones and New Information and Communication Technologies, Augustin Kibassa, has not kept all its promises.
"
The bi-weekly specifies that
"
These promises were carried at arm's length by the elected representatives of the opposition, for once supported by several of their colleagues from the majority who had dangled in the public opinion the outright abolition of the RAM tax. and the dismissal of the minister. The motion,
explains
Le Maximum, did not pass the ramp of the expediency vote, due to the need to first empty the procedure relating to the question of deputy Misare of the Sacred Union on the file.
"
“
The signals are disappointing: Sacred Union is suicidal drift!
You can read it in the newspaper
La République
with a cartoon that presents a sacred Union bus of the nation which leaves the asphalt track to get stuck in a puddle. “
One year after the FCC-CACH divorce, the Congolese are disillusioned with the management of the RAM file
, can we read in this newspaper.
The national deputies have put on the hot seat the theater served for more than 15 years by the men of the Kabila regime
, continues the newspaper
La République
for whom
The fall of the Sacred Union of the Nation has its roots in the very birth of the platform for having recruited its members from among the major actors of the Kabila regime whose blemishes we would like to dislodge.
"
In
Le Potentiel
, after the tabling of the report of the joint committee, a standoff is emerging for the investiture of the members of the CENI. This daily notes that “
the file of the designation of the members of the independent national electoral commission becomes like an octopus. Through Mgr Marcel Utembi, its president, CENCO says it is ready to return to the negotiating table, while the opposition Lamuka and FCC are resigned to participate in an electoral process that it considers to be sealed in advance
. "Question from the daily
Le Potentiel:"
Are we heading towards an arm wrestling between the CENCO-FCC duo and the group of six which strongly supports the candidacy of Dénis Kadima?

“
Will the USN majority in the National Assembly cross the Rubicon by endorsing the choice of Denis Kadima?
This is the question that the
Forum des As
newspaper
asks in turn, not without recalling that the president of CENCO asked the six religious denominations which support Denis Kadima to comply with article 12 of the CENI law. .
According to Bishop Utembi, quoted by the daily
Forum des As
, “
Denis Kadima does not meet the moral criteria set by the Religious Confessions sub-component, the only one which is competent to choose the president of the CENI
