During a meeting with the media, Isidore Ndaywel, the president of this structure of the Catholic Church in Kinshasa, which has been highly mobilized against the former government, called for a march on October 19. A crusade, he explained, against impunity and the powerlessness of justice. "Together, let us enter into the crusade against impunity…"

"Together, let us enter into the crusade against impunity and the powerlessness of justice": this is the appeal launched Thursday by Isidore Ndaywel, one of the leaders of the Lay Coordination Committee who is inviting the population to take to the streets on Saturday, October 19. The CLC evokes the matter of the 15 million dollars in kickbacks on petroleum product prices, and also denounces judges of the Constitutional Court, presumed to be corrupt in electoral disputes.
According to the Committee, the Congolese people waited until the end of September for a reaction from the government and public institutions in response to what it considers the trivialization of corruption and the embezzlement of public funds. For Isidore Ndayiwel, the CLC now demands sanctions against the people denounced: "We will march to demand an end to impunity, the suspension of persons involved in the embezzlement of 15 million dollars from the Republic and the immediate resignation of corrupt judges, unworthy of the Constitutional Court".
According to the organizers of the CLC, the crusade will be permanent and the people must remain mobilized.
