DRC opposition urges Tshisekedi to abandon constitutional changes

By GhanaSummary NewsroomPan-Africa

Félix Tshisekedi A leading Congolese opposition figure has called on President Felix Tshisekedi to abandon proposed constitutional changes that opponents fear could pave the way for a third presidential term.

Sesanga says any effort to achieve lasting peace must include all sides of the conflict, including M23 and opposition figures living outside the country “Inclusivity is the condition for peace and the reunification of the country and, consequently, the participation of the AFC-M23, Joseph Kabila, Nangaa [Corneille, coordinator of the AFC-M23] and all the other compatriots who are scattered across the world and cannot return for political reasons is necessary in order to move forward with a dialogue that is effective and that provides solutions to the country's problems, whose first mission would be to put an end to the conflict and the war.

Delly Sesanga, president of the ENVOL party and a member of the C64 opposition coalition, said the opposition's priority was to ensure Tshisekedi leaves office when his second and final term ends in 2028.
