Congo elections: Why is our revolution not being televised?

Congolese people were out in London for the 2nd time this week protesting against the elections in Congo right now. Elections which have been marred in alleged corruption, fraud & election violence.

Joseph Kabila has announced himself president & the international community recognised the results which many people & international observers have said are not valid. How can this happen?

Congolese people want to be heard, to create a platform where the politics of Congo can be discussed.

Mainstream media has not been reporting on the elections in Congo or the protests that have been happening in Canada, Belgium, US, France, UK & South Africa!

We need to change how Congo is reported & we need to start NOW!

PLEASE SHARE THIS VIDEO & OTHERS ON THE CONGO ELECTIONS & PROTESTS TO RAISE AWARENESS OF THE ON GOING GENOCIDE THAT IS HAPPENING & THAT IS BEING IGNORED BY MAINSTREAM MEDIA!

Only Mobutu supporters and now Tshisekedi say things like Kabila is worse than Mobutu. He couldn't and didn't steal more in 10 years than Mobutu in 27. He's never had absolute power like Mobutu had. Kinshasa has improved with Kabila, it only deteriorated with Mobutu. So I don't know what these people are talking about.

That is your subjective opinion, I know many Congolese people who would disagree with you. Who have a run organisations & institutions in DRC who have credibility.

I will now end this debate, it's clear it's productive, you're not providing solutions.

I hope you understand.

peace.

If you want to continue the conversation please e-mail me. I do not like or enjoy non-productive debates/conversations.

By the way, your 'protesters' murdered a man last week. They tried to burn down the embassy, the are terrorizing Congolese shop owners and beating up Kabila supporters. They are posting the pictures of children of diplomats online, they've come out with a hit list and are awaiting instructions from their leader in Kinshasa. I am a witness of this and didn't hear it from anywhere. I really like that people are out there raising awareness, I said that before. Just get your facts straight!

[ubuntufilms]

you're talking nonsense. The majority of the people that I know have denounced that. You're attempting to link everyone here to what you have mentioned?

That if irrational. Take your nonsense somewhere else brothers. This is about nation building, raising awareness & organising & mobolising young Congolese & African people.

Getting involved in political education to build a powerful Africa.

Check my other videos, you'll see that I know what I'm talking about. You challenged me to make one, I've got a bunch of them posted. I made all of the ones on my page. I'm in Africa, I'm not sitting in Europe or the States crying about how bad it is. I'm actually doing something. But keep throwing insults...it doesn't change the truth of what I'm saying. It also makes you look like the looser.

*sigh* now you're making the assumption that you're "actually doing something" please, if you wish to get to know me & what I do, send me an e-mail. I will tell you in great detail what I do in the diaspora & the continent in my country (Zimbabwe)

Watching this made me cry. Especially the part about the 3 month baby. My heart hurts. It bleeds for the congolese. I am ashamed of this government for not allowing vital media coverage on these tragic events. I will spread the word. Great video btw. Your words touched my heart and I really want to help this cause.

I like all the imagine this and imagine that, you guys cannot even come to an understanding who is going to speak. I know what is rape and I know what is watching rape of someone that you love. I agree with you when you say that our country is not free and rape is used to silence us, believe me, I will never be silenced and I take offence when some of you say that if Tshisekedi was in power, it will be better. Hell no, I am tired of all those dictatures, we need a new breed of leaders...

Spreading western propaganda tribalism and religious fallacy is not the way to go. Give us facts and historical truth to start with...

[nayodiop]

@Voumgou, in our "Africans" spiritual system of cultivation we do not fuck men, women and children we do not even use these words... Brother mind your words and let me remind you that imported ideologies, religions and revolutions are not the way to go... Be fine, we are not (AFRICANS) going backward. And I am taking yours words to the Goddess/God, right now. be blessed : )

[Angels Heaven]

Fuck you and shut up mother fucker. This is our Revolution

[sumguhsounds]

do you have a copy of this without the music? could u post it? thx for this.

[Patricia Balusa]

You are SO negative.is EVERYONE our enemy for you to be saying by callig on everyone we are calling on our enemies? people care whether they be African or not, half of them just DON'T know what is happening in the first place, so we make videos like this to raise awareness and encourage EVERYONE regardless of race/continent to help in 1 way or another...We made this video and spoke with passion. Please do not tell me I am not serious, u have NO idea.

[nayodiop]

@BalusaPatricia You are not serious sista, you are not serious never call your enemies to rescue you. Anyway keep marching, and may the lord "Cameron" or maybe the king of Belgium rescue you from Kabila (* with a military operation) , they too are upset by the Kabila government, but because of the SADC they cannot do anything but only help promoting a televised revolution.

[nayodiop]

@BalusaPatricia, these are your words "We called on EVERYONE to help us including Africans" (Yeah we know you are not calling for Africans here... They are certainly not you first option).
