Jeannot Matadi Nenga Gamanda

Dear Brothers and Sisters,
 
Being elected and serving the Republic is to decide for his country, is engaging the destiny of his fellow citizens. This requires a certain discipline, continuity in action, some intellectual integrity, ethics.
 
The Republic assumes to defend the public interest and to tell the truth. As for the Democratic confidence, the commitments made has to be respected.
 
I’ve always thought that the Republic Democratic of Congo was to modernise, to be able to see the changes. By contributing to the parliament as to the government in the implementation of the reforms… I tried to respond to the emergency.
 
For me, investing in humanity, is to want the development of your neighbour.
