Jean-Claude Lubaya, president of the Movement for the Action to Restore Congo (M.A.R.C.), criticized Félix Tshisekedi’s remarks on the Constitution in a statement posted on X on Sunday, October 25. On October 24, the president said he did not like the current Constitution and left it to his majority to decide whether it should be amended, also referring to the 2028 deadline. Lubaya said the remarks renounced the presidential oath and cited Articles 69 and 74, which require the head of state to respect and defend the Constitution, even if he is not required to like it.
