  5. Congo has the most child as slave labore in history. May the government fall and the children become free.

  12. France and Belgium they are worse people and cursed Nations because all they want is to see blood shading everywhere in this issues of the Congolese government and its own people who doesn't know the roots course of this war it's based on bad leadership of France and Belgium and now in steady of helping to finish it they are using their stupid media to put fuel ⛽⛽ in fire but you people remember you're not God noooo God will help us and you will be ashamed trust me you'll see it one day it will come when Belgium person or France person to put they foot on ground of any Africa country be hard more than you think because they want to suck people's lives by running after for stupid wealth France and Belgium I swear you'll become enemies of every nation in africa

  14. Those who seek to exploit Congolese resources, whether as local leaders or foreigners, remember this: you are waging a battle over the future of this woman carrying two heavy sacks on her back, with a child on her neck and another on her belly, as she flees the horrors you have inflicted upon her.

  19. Then be surprised that this is organised by russia and it's allies in africa. Remember one thing when there's a problem in Africa or the Middle East or Asia. Or south america it's usually russia is not far from the problems that they have caused.. It's been gone on for more than seventy five years now.

  21. Rwanda presents a real,… real,… real threat to your plundering business – you are all panicking as this is a serious threat to your bottom line. Africans doing business with each other is cause for an emergency security meeting to discuss immediate sanctions.

  22. Lazy empty reporting! Of course it is about minerals, to you it is only about plundering our resources, that's why you are talking about Congo, we on the other hand have to live here with your proxies fanning the flames in order to maintain the status quo.

  23. They are not Rwandan forces who are fighting they are M23 who are Congolese fighting for their rights. Surely if you go back to books you will find out that Banyamurenge M23 who are Congolese lived there before the colonizers came to Africa. So if you guys do not know what those colonizers did in Africa I would kindly ask you to find out the root cause of M23 Congolese fighting and stop bringing Rwanda in .

  25. Am calling to president Ruto as a Kenyan citizen to send as much military troops to secure Goma. We are paying so much tax and most it goes to the military. We merely need them in Kenya, let them assist our brothers, sisters, mothers, fathers, children and the elderly in Congo since Congo have pledged their royalty to East Africa Community
