Who should I vote for?

By Dominique (Dova) Kabengela

Power isn't won. It's bought. That is the brutal truth this book reveals. In the Democratic Republic of the Congo, elections are not an exercise in popular sovereignty. They are a marketplace. A vast marketplace where votes are bought and sold like commodities. A system designed to keep a handful of families in power-families that have passed it down as an inheritance since independence. This book is an indictment. It is neither an academic essay nor a political pamphlet. It is a meticulous investigation conducted by an independent observer-an entrepreneur and project evaluation expert who rejects any partisan affiliation. A man who has chosen independence to maintain a clear-eyed view of the workings of our political system. What this book demonstrates, with supporting evidence: 1. Power is monopolized by a family oligarchy. Since 1960, the same names have recurred. The Tshisekedis, the Kabilas, the Bembas, the Mobutus. But also lesser-known families who share ministerial posts, leadership positions in state-owned enterprises, and seats in the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate.
