National Assembly: Land certificates and PEJAB difficulties at the heart of parliamentary oversight

At the 21 October 2026 plenary session, chaired by Aimé Boji Sangara, lawmakers questioned Land Affairs Minister O’Neige N’Sele Mimpa about obtaining and establishing the legal validity of a land registration certificate. She outlined the documents required for an already registered plot, the development requirement for a new concession, and the division of responsibilities over the declassification of public land. Agriculture Minister Muhindo Nzangi Butondo explained the difficulties facing PEJAB, including the first funding arriving in 2024—seven years after the project’s official launch—and slow banking procedures.
