This week, the newspapers were interested in the passages on
RFI
and
France 24
of the Congolese Minister of Communication and Media, Patrick Muyaya, who, among others, reacted to the position of certain religious on the appointment of Denis Kadima at the head of the CENI.
In
Le Phare
, “
Patrick Muyaya denounces tribalist overtones
”. It is the headline of this newspaper which recalls that the National Episcopal Conference of Congo and the Church of Christ in Congo are opposed to this nomination for subjective and political reasons. And this newspaper continues: "
everyone must play their part
", before paraphrasing Patrick Muyaya: "
The religious have a prophetic mission, and the government has a political mission
". "
Hence the need to move forward, religious as political, if we want the constitutional deadline for the organization of the elections to be respected
", slices the daily
Le Phare
.
"
Muyaya says no to political calculations
", writes
L 'Avenir
, another daily, which emphasizes: "
The Sacred Union of the Nation works for the people first!
""
For him
, explains this newspaper,
it will be necessary to avoid that political calculations and politicians do not come to seal the impetus that there is in relation to the work which is in progress. To believe Patrick Muyaya
, continues this newspaper,
if there has been an internal divergence about the positioning of each other at the CENI office, this is not an opportunity to say that everything must be broken
. "
"
He is a very offensive seasonal spokesperson
..." notes the tri-weekly Africanews for its part.
“
From his interventions on the French media, Muyaya criticized religious leaders about respecting the electoral calendar.
And he warned against any approach tending to revive tribalism,
”notes Africanews.
Another subject mentioned in the press: "
Insecurity in the East of the country
"
In the weekly The Post, it is the attack at the beginning of the week in North Kivu, a region that is nonetheless under a special regime. "
Chanzu: the state of siege has broken down!"
This is how this newspaper approaches the attack on this hill located in Rutshuru which fell into the hands of M23 as well as the town of Runyonyi. "
The neighboring populations have taken the path of wandering in nature
", according to this colleague. "
After several hours of hesitation, the loyalist forces say they have taken Chanzu hill from the insurgents who have left for their place of origin, which would be Rwanda,
" explains
The Post.
“
In Kigali
,” the newspaper concludes,
we claim that we do not know more about these organized gangs that we call negative forces.
"
But for the bi-weekly
Le Maximum
, no need to look elsewhere.
"
Kigali drops its variant of M23
", we can read.
For
Le Maximum
, “
three weeks after an RDF raid, in Buhumba in the suburbs of Goma, Chanzu and Runyonyi in the Jomba groupement were attacked, and occupied by assailants who would belong to the wing of the M23 commanded by Jean-Marie Runiga and Baudouin Ngaruye, both exiled in Rwanda
