RDC: Twirwaneho – Alerte: Les FDLR Formes au Burundi et Envoyes dans les Haut-Plateaux pour Massacrer les Banyamulenge (25.07.2025)










Captain Ibrahim Traoré this week has made the decision to dissolve the Commission électorale nationale indépendante (CENI) which is the government institution who oversee and has the authority to run elections in Burkina Faso. The Council of Ministers on 16th July 2025 made the “framework of the refoundation of the State” and the dissolution of CENI, which was made as a budgetary change and to rationalize it under the Ministry of Territorial Administration and Mobility instead.
This choice signals the future, as the man who took power in September 30th 2022 and gave himself a five year mandate in May 2024. That man is clearly on a mission to stay unelected and unopposed as the Head of State and Commander-in-Chief. We know the Captain has no interests in elections and he has said it wasn’t a priority. Therefore, the recent act is just suggesting one thing and one thing only.
The Captain is planning to rule for life and extend the transitional period as long as he can. They speak of foreign interference and misuse of government funding on CENI. However, the Council produces no proof of this and it’s just allegations. It is accepting “hearsay” and word of mouth, instead of actually proving it.
It is just telling really why he dissolves the CENI. This man doesn’t intend to be ruling this Republic as a democracy or hear the will of the people. Neither has he any plans or wants the government to turn civilian anytime soon. As he wants to rule and he can give himself more instruments or the state and continue to pursuit the mission of ruling for life. That’s the only lesson here.
This junta is using the transitional period to extend its power. That’s the end game here and everyone should recognize it. These sorts of moves aren’t done for the betterment of the nation. It is a personal gain and for individual interests, as it is weakening the state and ensuring more power to Captain.
Traoré took power by the gun and he has been nearly assassinated a few times. There been coup attempts against him and most likely will happen again. Because his not opening up for civilians and for the will of the people. That isn’t revolutionary, but is another possible stagnation. A way to secure, consolidate power and have more say over the elections. The end of CENI should be a warning and a sign of the times ahead.
The captain is steering the ship and sooner or later people will see that his words are the law. When they get that and accept this. Then they understand how the Republic is run and that he has become their master. They are the puppets to his publicity and PR. The people are the peasants that are used as pawns and staging his ever greatness. Meanwhile, the reality must be so much more grim. As he rather rule supreme over them for eternity.
Traoré is showing his long-con here and his not concealing it. He took the power by the gun, but now his consolidating it by the usage of the pencil writing laws. Peace.

This National Resistance Movement Primaries of 2025 are revealing a true reality on the ground. The NRM are showing their force and way in manners, which should frighten and be a concern of everyone. These people aren’t leaving anything behind and the polls are life or death.
That’s why the Ssembabule district and Lwemiyaga county primaries are telling. The loss of Theodore Ssekikubo to Brig. Gen. Emmanuel Rwashande is a tale in itself. As the incumbent of ages lost this week. The rebel MP and the vocal Member of Parliament, which are a prolific character in the August House. He lost the ability to be the flagbearer and knows it will be harder in the General Election outside of the NRM.
That isn’t what is striking enough. As if the Army Commander and Army Officer is running in the elections. This has been normalized and getting a daily occurrence. However, one more thing was more shocking and worrying.
That’s the mobs and groups of people with “nkoni/kibooko” which means whip/stick. The people had sticks which are usually used to guiding and defence against the cattle. Which is why people should be worried about groups carrying these and possibly targeting the opposition with these. That could be signal and be a worrying sign ahead of the polls.
The nkoni squads in question was supported by the army and had directly government support, which means they wanted this and this is sending a message ahead of the Primaries. When they are using these sorts of means ahead of a Primary Election. You can just wonder what the same candidate is willing to do in the General. Just imagine that… and reflect on it.
We have seen the black mambas, the kifeesi and the drones. Should we be worried about the “nkoni” now?
Is this the future of the NRM party and how they are willing to organize elections? Use these tricks and methods of intimidation to win?
That’s a telling story and people should take notice of it. When an army commander uses these means in a primary. Would other follow and won’t matters just get worse? We have already seen how severe and suffering the state has attacked the opposition during the elections road map. These sorts of things would only make things much worse. Peace.





“The economic objective of the minerals is part of the plan; the other objective is to help the M23 win the war, and then they’re going to do what they did in South Sudan and declare the Kivus an independent state. The President said that. Remember history, this whole area used to belong to Rwanda (…)” (Source: RDF officer deployed in Eastern DRC) – (Final report of the Group of Experts on the Democratic Republic of the Congo, June 2025).
This here should be compelling and be a bigger storyline, as this is a neighbour and a sovereign state trying to use a proxy-war to change the territories of the neighbour, and create the plot of independence of two its provinces. That story should be told and it’s say a lot about the ambitions in Kigali and Rwanda. As it believes it has the capacity and the ability to make it happen in the Democratic Republic of Congo. That should be the word and a lesson, as it shows the sinister plot beneath it all and why they are doing it.
Just continue to read this:
“The idea was to help the M23 and, after recovering the territory, Rwanda was going to lobby the United Nations and argue that this part of the country should at least be given independence. It’s a line that goes back a long way, even to when James Kabarebe was still on the general staff. Kagame says this every time he speaks to the military, to indoctrinate them and say that this part of Rwanda has been taken over (…) The objective was to fight and defeat the FARDC; then the government would be forced to negotiate; and then Kagame could emerge as a negotiator and put conditions on the table (…) For the moment, they have changed their strategy; their objective is no longer Kinshasa, but North and South Kivu (…) In South Kivu, they also started to create conflicts between the Banyamulenge community and other communities; this was to create disorder so that the RDF could go and help (…). It’s the same thing for South Kivu: they don’t necessarily want to take the big towns, but rather all the villages next door to inculcate the ideology that this part belonged to the neighbor (…) Their mission was to come and fight here and take territory with natural resources, hold the place, push the DRC Government into negotiations until the eastern part was split up. This is Kagame’s doing.” (Source: RDF officer deployed in Eastern DRC) – (Final report of the Group of Experts on the Democratic Republic of the Congo, June 2025).
If you ever believed in the narratives and stories from Kigali. This here is telling, as the sentiments has been spread and like wildfire. I myself remember reading that the M23 was the liberators and the ones freeing the Kivu’s from the looters, pillage and complete destruction of society. They were coming in “peace” and for helping the population. Alas, that was part of the plot and the plan from the on-set. To sell a story and make the M23 more noble and more just in their mission.
These sources to the UN Group of Experts are just telling a grander scheme, which shouldn’t be left unnoticed, as this tells what the Kigali is willing to do and how it wages war with a proxy. They aren’t just partaking in illegal trading of minerals and occupying territories of another sovereign. No, they intend to create a justification and take away the authority or the statehood of the provinces, which they are using a proxy war as a tool for its “independence”. The people are becoming pawns and used as a tool for the will of the President of Rwanda. That’s what it boils down to and he wanted it too happen.
Everyone should see this and understand this. That’s the game and how he wants to play it. It’s a way of Kagame to carve up the territories and hurt the DRC. He wants to take his share and have a friendly or even a marionette government in the Kivu’s. This should be a wake-up call and a reminder of how deep this conflict is. As this silent war is for something bigger and grander, which is profit and control or minerals, which is enlarging the pockets of the engineers of this war. Peace.
