The path to a peace in Great Lakes Region of Africa Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by ANDRE MUKENGE, Congo, DR Sep 3, 2002
Peace & Conflict   Opinions

  

Central Africa is experiencing war, mainly in the following countries: Democratic Republic of the Congo, Rwanda, Uganda and Burundi. This appears as a great deal for local people living in this area. Since 1998, in particular, Democratic Republic of the Congo is in war. The country has lost almost 3 million individuals. Four years earlier, Rwanda, a smaller country in size, lost more than 300 thousands people. Uganda, on the other hand indulged in war against rebels living in the neighboring countries: Sudan and D.R.Congo.

How can this situation come to an end? That is the main question. The answer is supposed to be given by the victims. However in this part of the world, Human Rights aren't respected and civilians are obliged to shut their mouths. Although, it appears that nowadays, the man in the street must speak aloud.
This can't be possible if the "Goodwill" is absent; that means that the tragic situation of the Great Lakes Region of Africa must be taken Global. We are all concerned in this. White, Black, Yellow people are involved into finding a solution. The first path wherein we are called to walk is to consider the area as ours. Because there are some individuals who are thinking that the raw materials of this African part are belonging to them only. We must know that Democratic Republic of the Congo is a big country where the most important minerals can be found in the soil; Nowadays, industries are searching their row materials in this part of the world. The earth is the most useful of the world. The people are so faithful that with them a lot of things can be done.

The path to end of the conflicts in the Great Lakes Region of Africa is to involve each Global citizen; to consider the area not as the African one, but as the country of each one of us. That is why, we will be glad to organize conferences, workshops on the following issue: Peace, War and Solutions in central and East Africa.

INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS OF PEACE, our organization is ready to lead this conference.

REVEREND EVANGELIST ANDRE MUKENGE
President.

Voilence in Africa
KOGI AONDOVER JOSEPH | Oct 19th, 2002
Voilence is taking all over Africa, not just the great lakes region. Sure, worrysome as the case may be in that area, it would be nice to find a solution about the economic situation in Africa. From all indication, things seem to be getting much worse.In Nigeria presently, the word on the street is that the country might take up arms against cameroon,in respect to the recent world court verdict on Bakassi Pennisulla. must every part of Africa be in war situation? imagine the state of affairs in cotede viore in recent times... We must address the economic situation of this area!Particularly, the Industrialised Nations have a lot to do in this regard in the area of debt cancellation. We will only start moving in the right direction if that is done...
