Envoy Appeals for intervention from International Communities on Terrorism in Congo
By: Michael Mike
Ambassador of Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) to Nigeria, Pascaline Gerengbo Yakivu has appealed to the international community to call to order militaries of countries neighbouring Congo for sponsoring terrorism in the East African country.
The envoy who spoke in Abuja at the weekend during the commemorating of the victims of genocide in Congo, lamented: “Everyday, peaceful citizens are forced to flee their homes to take refuge in the bush, far from their natural environment, lacking everything, dying of hunger and diseases caused by their wandering situation.
“They haven’t harmed anyone; they are just suffering because they are Congolese. All this in total indifference of other countries and the international community, despite their reputation as civilized nations.
“The armies of these neighbouring countries that continue to cause death and desolation to all those innocent and peaceful people are however known, and for almost three decades those foreign Armies notably Rwanda which supports the M23 Terrorist groups have been carrying out operations in the Democratic Republic of Congo by occupying large territories for spurious reasons, raping killing and pillaging our natural resources.”
She alleged that: “All the researches carried out both by our State Institutions and credible foreign organisations on the subject of the numerous deaths caused by Foreign Armies incursions and occupation attests that more than 10 million deaths were caused by this situation.”
She said: “Imagine what 10 million deaths represent. We have countries both here in Africa and other continents whose overall population does not exceed 10 million inhabitants.
“We are victims of our hospitality, everyone is aware of the unfortunate events that happened in the Great Lakes Region in April 1994, when the DRC opened its borders to welcome Rwandan Refugees.”
The envoy used the opportunity to call on the international community “to come and intervene and make sure that the country regain its peace and stability because what is happening now, is not a drama. It is not an adventure, it’s real. People are suffering, people are dying. So we want the international community to really put efforts together wit
Every 2nd of August has been set aside for GENOCOST, which mean GENOCIDE FOR ECONOMIC purposes.

Mutiny: Presidential Guard Tightens Security Around Niger Presidency Amid Reports of Military Protest
Mutiny: Presidential Guard Tightens Security Around Niger Presidency Amid Reports of Military Protest
By Zagazola Makama
Security was significantly reinforced around Niger’s Presidential Palace in Niamey following reports of unrest involving elements of the country’s armed forces, security sources told Zagazola Makama.
According to multiple security sources, the heightened deployment of the Presidential Guard, supported by armoured vehicles around the Presidential Palace on the night of July 3 and into July 4, followed what was described as a limited protest by personnel of an armoured unit within the Niger Armed Forces (FAN).
The sources said some soldiers reportedly declined deployment to frontline positions in northern Tillabéri Region, particularly around Inatès and Chinagodrar, citing inadequate heavy equipment and insufficient operational resources to confront the growing security threats in the area.
The protest was described by one source as a “small mutiny,” although there has been no official confirmation from the Nigerien authorities.
Security sources said the development triggered concern within the country’s leadership, prompting the reinforcement of security around the Presidential Palace and temporary restrictions on movement in the surrounding area as a precautionary measure.
The Tillabéri Region remains one of Niger’s most volatile security zones, with recurrent attacks by armed extremist groups, including factions linked to the so-called Islamic State in the Greater Sahara (ISGS).
As of the time of filing this report, the Nigerien government and military authorities had not issued any official statement regarding the reported protest or the increased security presence around the Presidency.
The situation remains under close observation.
