Opinion: Chaos won’t save you Tshisekedi…

Félix Tshisekedi who is the incumbent for Presidency in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) have underestimated the people and the electorate. He thinks he can use old tricks of disorganization, lacking infrastructure and other measures to weaken the 20th December 2023 elections. That’s how things are looking at the moment.

Tshisekedi wasn’t the popular candidate in the previous election either. He was able to trick the system and sign a deal with the predecessor. That’s why CACH went into an alliance with the FCC. An alliance that the President has burned and disbanded over the term. That and other allies he went after to isolate himself and create more power in his hands.

The reports that foreign mercenaries, army reserves and the republican guards are ordered on the streets and in the cities, which are the strongholds of the opposition. That’s a sign that the authorities and the incumbent is worried about the announcement of the Presidential Elections.

It is telling that the gig is up this time. Several civil society organizations has called out the mismanagement and the charade of elections. The opposition candidates are calling it out too and have seen how it was done.

The time the announced results comes… there will be lack of trust and credibility. That’s because of how the President and the state organized the polls. It doesn’t matter what numbers they create or what they announce.

If he was confident and thought he would be a victor. He wouldn’t have run things this way and made it a shambolic chaos. Tshisekedi cannot run away from the problematic efforts of the elections.

If he thinks this make him legitimate or credible, his very wrong and the appointed commissioners of CENI isn’t making it better either. Tshisekedi can think he was clever with the ones he got the job there. However, everyone will question it even further…

When we know how things was rigged in 2018. We can rest assure that Tshisekedi would easily do it again. He was able to trick the system and get one term. That’s something his not willing to give up. Especially when he can could bully his former allies and put checks on them. This is what he has done and that power he won’t be willing to give away.

No, Tshisekedi is willing to live on a lie and hoping people gives way to him. This time around he won’t have the support of FCC or Kabila. That’s someone he turned on and you can wonder if he has enough allies to trick it this time. Because, that is the most valuable asset he has.

Tshisekedi cannot run or hide. Everything he does is being revealed. There are no place to hide or think he can get away with it. No, no one wants to give him that favour. He has already been lucky enough to be the Head of State for one term. Now his pursuing to trick the system and get his way for another term.

Tshisekedi was lucky last time and he was able to forge an alternative. Nevertheless, the same isn’t there in 2023 and he knows it too.

The chaos, mismanagement and the recklessness of the state won’t save him. It has instead showed that he hopes this is a fraud he can get away with. Peace.
