Africa Matters: DRC Conflict

For many years, fighting in eastern Democratic Republic of the Congo has forced millions from their homes. Aid agencies now warn that North Kivu province's largest city Goma is running out of space and food. What's behind the latest wave of violence, and why is lasting peace so hard to achieve? And more than 53,000 people at Malawi's only refugee camp are having to endure severe food shortages due to a funding shortfall.

we can't move forward if some Africans still think that they capitalize on their brothers misfortune or instability that's the actual reason why it's so easy for us to be divided . This is the perfect time for us to stand together and get full independence from the west ! WE NEED TO FREE CONGO

DRC has a leadership problem. The richest country in the world can not feed its people because of corruption. It is time for a change. Be vigilant. The struggle continues!

[@justafriend3408]

I hate this type superficial analysis that fail to mention where the ammunitions and funding for them is coming from and why they are coming from there. Poland just signed a deal with Rwanda to supply ammunition to Rwanda, why is this not being mentioned? Instead of disarming the region, they are busy adding firewood

[@sengabruno7036]

And what does Rwanda and Poland relationship have to do with Congo or should Rwanda ask for permission from Congo for it to do whatever is good for its people 😂😂😂😂 be serious and have a sense of reasoning before you say anything

When there are still such mentality of those who say that no Tutsi in DRC, I think the flight will never end. Those M23 they fighting for their families spread around all countries ( I think in Kenya you have Congolese camp, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania Europe, Australia, USA…). The best way to resolve those problems in Africa not only Congo. We have to think bigger, cast away hatred, we are the same, we do have the same creator, why can’t we sought peace and development instead of fighting against other. None of chose where to be born or what tribe to be born from… please all stand for peace not for war. Stop war!!! Sit together and talk about what can make us develop.

[@Wise-ew5cw9yj6x]

This problem needs to be handed with wisdom. 1. This so called m23 rebels say they fight for their lands while their parents are suffering in refugees camps all over the region. Their lands are occupied by fdlr who fight side Congo army. 2. Drc has more than 200 rebels groups. Why this focus on m23 while this group has political issues, and ADF and other groups doesn't matter! Some Congolese say there is no place for Tutsi in Congo: The region needs to Think about this issue instead of fighting them.

[@petersilas4234]

They could easily be accommodated in the Congolese society, only that they demand special treatment including important posts in the army and government. They have to accept the position of any Citizen otherwise it is tribalism.

People from Congo don’t know that west is the one causing the civil war because they want minerals from Congo. If we read history before Berlin conference, people lived together in peace ✌️. On that time our great grandfathers shared everything in peace. Right now they are blaming Tutsi. Please stop blaming Tutsi blame your self. Just everyone tribe should come together and support each others and send away west. Then you will live in the land of honesty and milk.

[@petersilas4234]

Kagames stubborn and uncompromising character is the problem. I wonder what kind of wisdom this president has . He has killed more people in DRC than in the genocide. It is the same character that even Nyerere failed to reconcile in the Arusha talks and that led to the death of president Habilyamana and then genocide. He has to change his attitude.

Les Congolais ne savent pas que l’Ouest est à l’origine de la guerre civile parce qu’ils veulent des minerais du Congo. Si l'on lit l'histoire avant la conférence de Berlin, les gens vivaient ensemble en paix ✌️. A cette époque, nos arrière-grands-pères partageaient tout en paix. En ce moment, ils accusent les Tutsi. S'il vous plaît, arrêtez de rejeter la faute sur les Tutsi et sur vous-même. Toutes les tribus devraient se rassembler, se soutenir mutuellement et se renvoyer vers l'ouest. Alors vous vivrez au pays de l’honnêteté et du lait.

[@abeidkhamis6130]

Personally I' m bantous I don't enjoy conflicts in addition on your comment is that Tutsi were set to plan by western for NATO benefits longtime to keep great region in trouble which enable them to gain minerals from DRC westerners trickies they let us believe that our ethnical differnces is sources of problem while not, remember we were living in peace all longtime so for conclusion Anglo Saxons families are source of all political,economical,social and medical world problems. We us africans black people we could realize that and come together as one people although our ethnical differences.

[@abeidkhamis6130]

DRC problems are caused by USA,UK and other so called developed countries,and not Tutsis or bantous kagame is just a tool (agent) to destabilize the region. Let Tutsi people not fall into trap of westerners by claiming citizenship by weapons.
