PLO Lumumba: Congo vs Rwanda. Congo war. World on Fire ep5.

Congo is at war and this war has been ongoing for a while now. This war is caused by the availability of minerals which several countries are after. The boundaries established by the colonialists have divided the nation and further led to emergence of forces such as M23 which continue to cause instability in the region. On this episode of LUMUMBA Explains, he shares why Congo is at war and the enablers behind the war. France has slowly been losing its grip in Africa and as a result, they’re accused of financing some of the insurgencies happening across the continent to cause destabilization for their own benefits. The case of Congo is quite complex and as it stands, the country is on the jaws of danger.
