DRC state authority and governance initiatives

Overview

Jacquemain Shabani, the Vice-Prime Minister of the Interior, has initiated several measures to strengthen state authority and governance across different provinces in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

In South Kivu, Shabani opened a community reflection workshop in Uvira to address security crises and the presence of armed groups. The initiative seeks to restore state authority and social cohesion through dialogue between community members and provincial actors.

In Kasaï-Central, the Vice-Prime Minister announced the creation of a commission to resolve customary power conflicts. This commission is tasked with examining disputes over traditional leadership and legitimacy to mitigate security concerns before official government decrees designate customary chiefs.
