The ICJ Case Judgment [DRC V. Uganda] set precedence for more cases [towards the other nations participating in Congolese Wars between 1996 – 2003]

Yesterday’s landmark ruling in the International Court of Justice is astonishing and vastly important. As it sends a message and opportunities for the Democratic Republic of Congo to seek remedy from all the parties that looted, destroyed and directly added harm to the conflicts in the two major Congolese wars, which lasted from 1996 to 2003.

All of these years, it wasn’t only Uganda Peoples Defence Force (UPDF) who invaded the then Zaire or Democratic Republic of Congo. There was several of other parties and militias that participated in it. Which was sponsored by various of parties and took part in the looting, destruction and killings. Therefore, it is right that the Government of Uganda is punished and have to pay, but the DRC have to build on this.

The DRC have to go after all the other ones who participated in the Congolese Wars. There is a need to collect evidence, witnesses and documentation, which will be deemed fit for the ICJ. Because, the DRC has been able to prove and challenge the Ugandans in the same Court. Now, it is time to do that with others. Since, we all know the Ugandans wasn’t alone in this and it was several of other parties, nations and warlords who took part. They all should pay for the grievances and harm it has committed in the DRC.

In the first Congolese War, the nations participating, which we know of was also Rwanda, Burundi, Angola and Eritrea. While in the second Congolese War there was also several of others participating in the warfare. This time it is been proven that Rwanda, Burundi, Angola, Zimbabwe, Namibia and Tchad.

We know there was several of militias that had foreign support as well. These was various of them and they had real relevance and amassed vast fortunes for the ones trading illicit mineral resources. That’s why we know the participants did use the war for profits and earn wealth on the plights of the DRC, which is just the bleak reality of all of this.

That’s why the DRC and authorities in Kinshasa shouldn’t just celebrate the victory of yesterday. They should run wild and start cases against the other parties in the conflict as well. That would be justified and fair. To go after all the nations and their armies who was in the wars. To go after the ones sponsoring and making it possible for militias to collect, earn and profit of warfare in provinces across the DRC. That would be justified and get the Republic some relief of the suffering, which it has been living through and continues to have.

It is not like the monsters of these wars are gone. They are still prominent and has possible state sponsored militias within the DRC. It is not like the neighbours has totally left and doesn’t profit on the porous borders between the republics. That what it does and this should give Kinshasa more reasons to go after them.

Let’s hope they work on it and pursuits justice, because it’s the only reasonable thing to do. The DRC should go after the other parties now, as they won over the Uganda. There are other government that should shake their boots and worry about the future tab they have to return to Kinshasa. That would only make sense at this point.

Yes, it will take years and years to get it happening, but yiu see the pay-off in the end. The DRC know how things work and should build on it. As it has the strength and wisdom to pull it off. Peace.

Zimbabwe: Government Statement on the Conditions of Service for Teachers and Civil Servants (08.02.2022)

Opinion: Chamisa has outsmarted the political mercenaries … [the CCC countered the battle for the MDC]


Today it’s official that the real Movement for Democratic Change – Alliance (MDC-Alliance) is rebranded and is a new party under the name of Citizens Coalition for Change (CCC). They have also gone all YELLOW and a new logo.
We know that Movement for Democratic Change – Tsvangirai (MDC-T) leader Douglas Mwonzora says he also controls the MDC-Alliance. While Thokozani Khupe who was suspended by the MDC-T leader Mwonzora claims his the MDC-Alliance leader. Therefore, Khupe says she cannot be suspended by him and has never been associated the MDC-Alliance. Nevertheless, that battle is now meaningless and pointless, as Chamisa has outsmarted them both.
Chamisa has changed the logo, the colour and the name. As the mercenaries have hijacked the whole Movement for Democratic Change. There is even a third branch calling themselves the MDC. So, the CCC was a wise move, instead of battling and compete against the courts, which has already given the headquarters, the funds and made it possible for Mwonzora to recall MPs from the MDC-Alliance.
However, with this recent move Mwonzora and Khupe owns to shell of parties. Secondly, they have the names and regalia, but they don’t have anything of worth. These two are just alone with the few compatriots who has believed in their cause.
We have to hope this is the trick, but Mwonzora and Khupe is tricked out. They got nothing and cannot stifle the process or the cause of the previous real MDC-Alliance. Since they have become the CCC. That party is all new and can start a fresh.
The Zimbabwe Electoral Commission (ZEC) cannot by a technicality or anything else stop it. The CCC cannot be replicated right now and neither is there any agreement, which Mwonzora or Khupe can hijack.
What Chamisa and the whole original MDC-Alliance party has done is to find a new home and rebrand themselves. They have the ability to not be nostalgic or take stock in the past. While it must hurt or sting a bit to leave the MDC and its hisorty behind. Certainly, this is adjusting to the facts on the ground and the reality, which is showing true meaning of leadership.
We have to salute Chamisa and his team. That they are bold and bravely doing this. As the ZANU-PF has demolished and used all means to destroy the MDC internally. Now the same forces and leaders has lost their value.
The CCC will be a force to be reckon with and now the ZANU-PF should be worried. Peace.
