Ebola in Ituri: CdC/RN alerts on response governance, mentions «embezzlements» and «overbilling»

The Cadre de Concertation sur les Ressources naturelles (CdC/RN) raises concerns about governance issues in the Ebola response in Ituri, citing embezzlements, poor coordination, and resource management failures. A study conducted from May to September 2026 with 53 stakeholders in Bunia, Rwampara, and Mongbwalu highlights significant discrepancies in salaries and cases of overbilling in logistics. The organization also criticizes the lack of transparency in funding, with over $165 million announced but only $65 million received, and urges increased citizen oversight, independent audits, and mobile money payments.
