FRN’s creation: Clément Kanku urges Congolese to defend national unity

Clément Kanku, president of the Le Renouveau movement, is urging Congolese people to mobilize to preserve national unity amid the ongoing security crisis in eastern DR Congo. Responding to the AFC-M23’s transformation into the Front for the Refoundation of the Nation (FRN), he says Congolese should unite against any project aimed at dividing the country. He argues that defending territorial integrity must be a priority for all national stakeholders, regardless of political affiliation, and calls for patriotic commitment to peace, national cohesion and sovereignty.
