      How much did Kabila pay to Malanji, nothing??
      Malanji will be the highest earner in this thing, how much is daily allowances from both SADC and GRZ + monthly salary he hasn’t touched in last 2 months? Name your new house you will build in New Kasama as Kinshasa House.
      Keep the chaos going!!! Kufila munsenga bwana.

  2. What really are the issues on DRC? I thought there’s a presidential election petition in court?

  3. This is what YALI was commending Lungu for, the chap failed hence the Troika. fail fail fail…. like everything he does
