  • "But the truth is that for the depth and scale of change that is required in developing countries, political power is required," Mr Osinbajo said.

The article from AllAfrica discusses the ongoing political and security challenges in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) as it approaches the December 20, 2024, elections. It highlights the increasing violence in the eastern part of the country, particularly in North Kivu, where clashes between the Congolese army and the M23 rebels, backed by Rwanda, have escalated. This conflict has led to significant displacement of people and has raised concerns about the feasibility of holding credible elections amidst such instability. The article also mentions the international community's involvement, with the United States imposing sanctions on individuals supporting the M23, and the United Nations peacekeeping mission, MONUSCO, facing criticism for its effectiveness. Furthermore, it touches on the political landscape, noting President Felix Tshisekedi's campaign for re-election amidst accusations of electoral manipulation and the opposition's struggle to present a united front. The piece underscores the complex interplay of local, national, and international dynamics influencing the DRC's path towards peace and democracy.
