In the face of the Ebola threat, Deputy Remyxon Mukweso proposes to postpone the start of classes by one month in affected areas

Deputy Remyxon Mukweso, elected from Butembo, has requested a one-month postponement of the school year in areas affected by the Ebola epidemic, particularly in Ituri and North Kivu. This request is motivated by the risks of contamination in schools and the lack of sanitary equipment. Mukweso emphasizes that response teams have not yet reached an optimal level to control the epidemic. The proposal is contested by former deputy Promesse Matofali, who advocates for strengthening prevention measures instead.
