[00:00:00] after the departments of Pool
[00:00:02] disciplinary framework of the and Duel finished
[00:00:04] last week, the commander of the national gendarmerie
[00:00:07] General of Brigade Olangue
[00:00:10] visited the departments of Buenda, Lekumu and
[00:00:14] Niari. The objective of this tour in the gendarmerie
[00:00:19] firefighters from the Pool civil regions is to transmit the vision of the hierarchy to all
[00:00:23] gendarmes. Eric Mabica for the
[00:00:25] commentary. Commented in the departments of Pole and
[00:00:29] the... the tour of contact and assessment
[00:00:32] of the national gendarmerie commander continues in the
[00:00:36] south of the country. General Brigade Gildas Olangue
[00:00:39] successively visited Madingou in Buenza, Sibiti in
[00:00:43] Lalekumu and Dolisi in Niari. Through the
[00:00:46] presentations of the regional commanders, the general was able
[00:00:49] to inquire about the security situation, which was generally calm
[00:00:52] in these three departments, but also to understand the
[00:00:56] concerns of the gendarmes wherever he
[00:00:59] went. The new head of the gendarmerie noted
[00:01:03] Menge Matondo, Director of some developments in terms of working
[00:01:05] conditions, such as the ongoing construction
[00:01:09] of a perimeter wall at the headquarters of the gendarmerie regions of
[00:01:13] Buenda and Alekumu. As in Pole and Jael, the
[00:01:17] commander of the national gendarmerie
[00:01:20] heart of the had direct communication with the gendarmes. At the heart of these field
[00:01:23] visits was direct contact with personnel.
[00:01:27] The objective was to reiterate discipline, cohesion,
[00:01:30] current and future challenges
[00:01:34] for the benefit of the population,
[00:01:37] that allowed for the care of and finally the transmission and
[00:01:39] simulation of hierarchical instructions. To conclude his visit to Madingou,
[00:01:43] he shared a meal with the troops, a symbol of cohesion. In the
[00:01:46] gendarmerie region of Niari in Dolizie, General Olangé took
[00:01:50] this opportunity to inaugurate the new building of the Niari road
[00:01:54] safety squadron, an operational tool designed to
[00:01:58] reinforce security. On the roads, after
[00:02:01] Bowenza, Alekumu and Niari, the focus will be on
[00:02:05] Kouilou and Pointe Noire, still in the southern zone before
[00:02:09] continuing his tour in the northern part of the
[00:02:12] country.
[00:02:14] In the Niari department, the campaign for the restructuring of
[00:02:18] councils and traditional notables was
[00:02:21] launched. At the end of this ceremony, four
[00:02:24] resolutions were adopted. Edgar
[00:02:27] Mazila, four loci. For the opening
[00:02:30] ceremony and the closed-door proceedings, such was the sum of
[00:02:34] this extraordinary session in the conference room of the prefecture's
[00:02:37] hotel, where delegates of traditional notables from
[00:02:41] all districts of the Niari department gathered
[00:02:44] for the official launch of the restructuring campaign of their
[00:02:48] council, with the distribution
[00:02:51] of protection for elderly people and the
[00:02:55] presentation and wearing of sashes to Madam Prefect, the president of the
[00:02:58] municipal council of the city of Dolisie, represented here, and the
[00:03:02] venerable Mat Mounois Ignas, all elevated to
[00:03:05] honorary members. Mat Mounois, who, after his speech
[00:03:09] for the occasion, then provided IT equipment to the
[00:03:12] departmental coordination.
[00:03:15] The closed-door proceedings led by Jules Moussabou, first secretary
[00:03:18] general of the national institution, resulted
[00:03:22] in two support motions, one of which was addressed to
[00:03:25] His Excellency, the President of the Republic, Head of State, for his constant
[00:03:29] action in favor of peace,
[00:03:32] considering that His Excellency Mr. Denis Sassou Nguesso, President of the
[00:03:36] Republic, Head of State, is the constitutional guarantor of
[00:03:39] national unity, social peace and
[00:03:42] territorial integrity,
[00:03:46] dissemination of we pledge to hold accountable all those of our children who
[00:03:49] seek to disrupt the
[00:03:53] hard-won peace, we offer our total,
[00:03:56] unwavering and vigilant support to His Excellency,
[00:04:01] the President of the Republic, Head of State, for his constant
[00:04:04] action in favor of peace. In his closing
[00:04:08] expertise or speech, in a narrative style full of
[00:04:10] advice, Joseph Mabi, interim cabinet director, on behalf
[00:04:14] of Madam Prefect, exhorted the participants in this
[00:04:18] session to find good women and men to be
[00:04:21] elected, because not everyone can be wise,
[00:04:24] he stressed, not everyone who wants to be
[00:04:27] wise is, you have therefore received
[00:04:30] a seed certainly from the most high, which makes you
[00:04:33] distinguished among the populations that we
[00:04:37] are, so give
[00:04:40] proof, give
[00:04:44] cardinal proof
[00:04:47] that one finds only in God
[00:04:50] wisdom. It should
[00:04:53] be noted that the Niari department has 14 districts, so
[00:04:57] a timely plan needs to be put in place.
[00:05:00] day and dates for everything to
[00:05:02] begin. The departmental councillor
[00:05:06] of Plateau, Paulette Ébina Tarangzo, went
[00:05:09] to meet the people of Djombala to report
[00:05:13] on the conclusions of the budgetary and
[00:05:15] administrative sessions of the departmental council, an opportunity for
[00:05:19] her to donate school kits to students.
[00:05:22] Commentary by Eric
[00:05:24] Maquebo.
[00:05:27] Reporting on the conclusions of the budgetary and
[00:05:30] administrative sessions of the departmental council of the
[00:05:33] Plateaux and gathering the
[00:05:36] concerns of her constituents, such is one of the missions
[00:05:40] of the departmental councillor of the Plateaux. Elected from the
[00:05:43] locality of Diombala 2, Paulette
[00:05:46] Bina, supported by her colleague Emar Esono, Councillor
[00:05:50] Paulette Bina visited several
[00:05:53] villages, notably Osa, Kiyalé,
[00:05:56] Oké, with the objective of exchanging with the
[00:06:00] populations, gathering their
[00:06:03] concerns and presenting them with the report on the
[00:06:06] functioning of the departmental council during
[00:06:10] the past four years. It is
[00:06:13] through them that we were elected, and therefore
[00:06:16] we must report to them, it is our duty. Everywhere we
[00:06:19] went, I saw with my own eyes the enthusiasm of the
[00:06:23] populations who came in droves to answer her
[00:06:26] call, because she came here to give an account of the
[00:06:30] past 4 years of our mandate which is already nearing its
[00:06:33] end, in compliance with the duty of accountability that
[00:06:37] falls to every elected representative of the people.
[00:06:39] Abina also made... an act
[00:06:43] in favor of education, in the visited localities, she
[00:06:46] proceeded with the distribution of teaching materials to
[00:06:50] schools and students, in order to
[00:06:53] contribute to the improvement of learning conditions and
[00:06:57] to encourage children to continue their
[00:07:00] schooling. The district itself therefore has
[00:07:04] 19 villages and we are visiting these 19 villages, in all
[00:07:08] schools, we will therefore support the parents in all villages where
[00:07:12] there are schools. At the end of this local
[00:07:15] tour, Paulette Bina will maintain the
[00:07:18] dialogue with her constituents, to remain attentive to their
[00:07:22] concerns in the perspective of local
[00:07:26] development for the benefit of the people of the
[00:07:30] Plateaux. Fighting disinformation
[00:07:34] by developing critical thinking and the reflex of
[00:07:37] fact-checking, this is the whole meaning of the Stop Locuta
[00:07:41] program which is coming to an end. Republic of Congo, for several months,
[00:07:44] journalists, civil society members and young people have been trained
[00:07:48] in techniques for verifying images, videos and
[00:07:52] content disseminated in the public space, an
[00:07:54] initiative described as strategic by the
[00:07:57] French Ambassador to Congo, Felicia
[00:08:00] Bikumu.
[00:08:03] Stop Locuta, the program to combat
[00:08:06] disinformation in the Republic of Congo, offered a few
[00:08:10] dozen journalists, civil society
[00:08:13] actors, young deaf people, high school
[00:08:16] students and many other social strata, training in the
[00:08:19] use of fact-checking tools,
[00:08:22] capacity building in the systematic verification
[00:08:26] of images, videos and many other information
[00:08:30] disseminated in the public space. Today, the program
[00:08:33] ends, but the fight against disinformation
[00:08:36] continues. It had an
[00:08:40] impact on journalists today who are changing
[00:08:43] their way of publishing, their way of working with information, but also
[00:08:47] the impact on young people who use phones,
[00:08:51] smartphones and everything that comes with it,
[00:08:54] for a certain responsibility in the
[00:08:58] information. Disinformation is no longer a distant
[00:09:02] phenomenon, it is part of our
[00:09:04] daily lives. False information about a disease, a rumor about
[00:09:08] currency, an image taken out of context or an accusation
[00:09:13] can spread in a few hours, which is why
[00:09:16] it is essential to train, learn to verify, to
[00:09:20] contextualize, to identify sources before believing
[00:09:23] information or sharing it. Stop
[00:09:26] Locuta, a program described as strategic by
[00:09:29] the French Ambassador to Congo in the areas of
[00:09:32] cooperation, professional life and many other
[00:09:36] sectors, when you are manipulated by people who are either
[00:09:39] ignorant, or who wish you
[00:09:43] well, you can lose
[00:09:46] opportunities, you can even say foolish things, you
[00:09:49] can lose your credibility, perhaps with
[00:09:52] employers, with your family, and
[00:09:56] as a result, it is the professional aspect that will suffer. Stop
[00:09:59] Locuta concludes with an award ceremony for the two winners of the
[00:10:03] national fact-checking competition in the journalists'
[00:10:07] category, distinctions that encourage the
[00:10:10] practical application of fact-checking techniques and call
[00:10:14] for the continuation of the fight against disinformation in the
[00:10:17] Republic of Congo.
[00:10:21] Editorial collaboration Bouma Divine.
[00:12:00] Informing you, training you, and above all sharing
[00:12:04] the daily life of firefighters, this is the whole
[00:12:07] essence of your program, our
[00:12:10] program, civil security and population. In this
[00:12:14] issue, the sections departmental
[00:12:17] agreement, training, awareness, and the world of
[00:12:20] civil security will form the
[00:12:23] framework. Ladies and gentlemen, good morning
[00:12:26] and welcome.
[00:12:32] After the founding acts of the first day of the conference of
[00:12:36] civil security officials, this third part focuses on
[00:12:39] deepening administrative and operational
[00:12:42] skills. Taking up functions,
[00:12:45] disciplinary procedures, combined operations and material
[00:12:48] management, the proceedings of this second day offered
[00:12:52] civil security personnel essential
[00:12:55] keys to improve
[00:12:58] command, a major step that
[00:13:02] confirms the resolute march towards excellence. Details
[00:13:05] with Police Lieutenant Georgelin
[00:13:08] Massamba. Focus on
[00:13:11] governance, strategy. For this
[00:13:14] second day of the first conference of civil security
[00:13:17] officials in Brazzaville, the discussions
[00:13:20] naturally turned to the professionalization of
[00:13:24] executives. Mastering procedures, this
[00:13:27] particularly busy day was punctuated by
[00:13:30] several strong and very enriching moments. The
[00:13:33] morning opened with the theme "Navigating in taking up a
[00:13:37] position" led by Mr. Aurélien Ganzami around his
[00:13:40] eponymous book which immediately captivated the
[00:13:43] audience and participants vied for signed
[00:13:47] copies. An introduction all the more
[00:13:50] striking as one too often approaches a new
[00:13:53] function unprepared.
[00:14:25] Several times we have failed at a position during a managerial
[00:14:28] transition,
[00:14:30] it's not because we lacked professional
[00:14:33] intelligence.
[00:14:36] We failed because we lacked
[00:14:39] benchmarks, why did we lack
[00:14:42] benchmarks? Because the great paradox of professional
[00:14:45] progression is that what allowed you to get the position does
[00:14:49] not necessarily suffice to succeed. I
[00:14:51] repeat, what allowed you to get the position
[00:14:55] does not necessarily suffice to succeed. Everyone here in
[00:14:58] this room knows how they get appointed, maybe
[00:15:02] not, but to stay, to shine,
[00:15:05] to make an impact, that requires other ingredients. The
[00:15:08] first thing we must remember in our
[00:15:11] process of navigating taking up a position, it has three
[00:15:15] essential dimensions. The first dimension is the strategic
[00:15:18] art
[00:15:22] in taking up a position, the second
[00:15:25] dimension is the spiritual dimension, and the third
[00:15:28] dimension is the leadership dimension.
[00:15:32] These three dimensions can be
[00:15:33] dissociated. All the management
[00:15:37] works on this subject speak of them
[00:15:41] separately, but here we will talk about them in a
[00:15:44] complementary way.
[00:15:47] Following this and logically, Police General First Class
[00:15:50] Alberto, commander of civil security, delivered a
[00:15:54] communication on taking up office, an adaptation of the
[00:15:57] first theme to the context of civil security positions. Apart
[00:16:01] from the actual installation in your new
[00:16:04] function, these are the acts.
[00:17:37] he also has the public force,
[00:17:40] the territorial commander meets the zone commander, the commander of the territorial police
[00:17:44] forces, the commander of the gendarmerie
[00:17:47] regions, but also meets if he is in the
[00:17:50] constituency, the heads of detachments of the public force, because they are stationed
[00:17:53] there, you have to meet them because you will have to work with
[00:17:57] them. But he also has in this relational context the people
[00:18:00] in positions above you can also give you advice because
[00:18:04] indeed, all these people have advice, the
[00:18:07] prefect, the mayor, everyone will tell you, "Well, here, we want
[00:18:11] to work like this," he will tell you because he had bad experiences with your
[00:18:14] predecessor, but subtly, they will say, "You
[00:18:17] have to do this, this, this, this." Then,
[00:18:21] the participants discussed the disciplinary procedures within the
[00:18:25] public force, alongside Doctor Lieutenant Colonel
[00:18:28] Freddy Fortin Angunga, public policy advisor
[00:18:32] to the Minister of State Control, Quality of Public Service
[00:18:35] and the Fight against Anti-values. Disciplinary procedure in our country is
[00:18:39] framed, I refer you
[00:18:42] to the general status of military personnel and gendarmes, the
[00:18:46] special status of police personnel and another text
[00:18:49] of formalities naturally, concerning the composition and functioning of
[00:18:53] disciplinary councils. It is written in all our
[00:18:56] walls that discipline is the main force of the
[00:19:00] armies, and therefore it is important for each of us,
[00:19:04] for every superior to obtain from his subordinates complete
[00:19:07] obedience and submission at all
[00:19:10] times. This is a maxim that has been taught for more than 170 years
[00:19:13] in our schools, always in our
[00:19:17] schools, in our barracks, we talk about it, but the problem is not there,
[00:19:21] it is that this maxim carries within itself a
[00:19:24] paradox, a paradox, the paradox
[00:19:28] is that it is at the same time presented as the very essence of
[00:19:32] our profession of discipline, but at the same time
[00:19:35] in its implementation.
[00:19:37] So the discipline in question remains one of the least known,
[00:19:41] sometimes the most caricatured and the most
[00:19:44] arbitrary sources, our conduct on the military
[00:19:48] level is based on loyalty to the
[00:19:51] party,
[00:19:54] exemplary conduct, availability.
[00:19:56] disponibilité,
[00:20:00] These three elements make the soldier a disciplined
[00:20:03] man, if only one of these
[00:20:07] elements is not part of your behavior,
[00:20:10] you become de facto
[00:20:13] undisciplined, de facto. So
[00:20:16] all this summarizes around the concepts of
[00:20:19] discipline and sense of responsibility. What should
[00:20:23] we understand? It is to know
[00:20:26] and apply regulations, that goes without saying.
[00:20:29] Always act in the spirit of the orders received
[00:20:33] as a soldier, without orders, no action, except in case of
[00:20:36] danger. Do not execute an
[00:20:40] illegal order, that is in our
[00:20:43] constitution. Measure your responsibilities, always
[00:20:47] assume them. They also discussed the
[00:20:52] Inspectorate General of the National Police and the National
[00:20:55] Gendarmerie, led by Police Colonel Serge
[00:20:58] Obrier Mabika Mouyingu of this structure.
[00:21:02] Then, Colonels Major Nizier Christian Kodia and Jean Serge
[00:21:05] Luingui Malonga of the Congolese Armed Forces shared
[00:21:09] their expertise through two key interventions, one
[00:21:12] dedicated to the Congolese vision of combined operations and operational
[00:21:16] defense of the territory, the other focused on the
[00:21:20] method of developing decisions and operational orders.
[00:21:24] Finally, participants were sensitized to cyber
[00:21:27] criminal threats by Doctor Eric Armel
[00:21:30] Nduumba. The day continued with the management of
[00:21:34] heritage and equipment presented by Lieutenant Colonel
[00:21:37] Louis Gobila Gombo, Director of Heritage and Equipment of the
[00:21:41] Congolese Armed Forces, as well as the human resources
[00:21:44] component, assignments, evaluations and promotions
[00:21:48] addressed by Police Lieutenant Colonel Gladice
[00:21:53] Administration and Personnel at the Civil Security
[00:21:56] Command. More than a simple assessment, this day
[00:22:00] established itself as a true catalyst
[00:22:03] for excellence, enough to consolidate the
[00:22:06] stature and technicality of the cadres involved at the
[00:22:10] action.
[00:22:15] In the Echo of the Departments, we head to Dolisie in Niari where
[00:22:19] emergency services were called via
[00:22:22] the radio for a home birth, an intervention
[00:22:27] the mother and her newborn. Commentary by Police Lieutenant Doctor
[00:22:31] Vivadi Shananda Malonga: It was
[00:22:34] around 3 a.m. this Monday, October 5,
[00:22:37] 2026, when a family from the "Capables" neighborhood in
[00:22:41] District 1 of Delisie alerted the emergency
[00:22:44] services. The call was made because a young
[00:22:48] 19-year-old woman had just given birth to a boy at
[00:22:52] her home.
[00:22:54] Dispatched to the scene, the civil security medical
[00:22:57] team, led by Police Lieutenant Doctor Tango
[00:23:01] Ioiben, arrived after the birth had already taken
[00:23:04] place. The emergency services provided first aid to the
[00:23:08] mother and newborn before evacuating them to the Dolisie Regional
[00:23:12] Army Hospital for medical care.
[00:23:14] We received
[00:23:18] the order from the territorial commander
[00:23:22] to dispatch the ambulance to the scene. Arriving at
[00:23:26] 3:22 AM, we found the young
[00:23:30] lady lying on the family bed with
[00:23:32] the child in her arms. The male
[00:23:36] child was still attached to his mother by the umbilical
[00:23:39] cord. We and the team proceeded to cut the
[00:23:43] umbilical cord, clean the child as well as
[00:23:46] the mother, and we then took the road to...
[00:23:50] the regional army hospital. We
[00:23:53] proceeded to suture these different tears to stop
[00:23:57] the bleeding.
[00:24:00] After 3 days of observation, the mother and her baby, whose health
[00:24:04] status was deemed satisfactory, returned
[00:24:07] home. An intervention that testifies to the
[00:24:11] responsiveness of the civil security teams in the face of obstetric
[00:24:14] emergencies.
[00:24:21] on September 26 and 27, 2026, the
[00:24:24] Evangelical Church of Congo organized a spiritual retreat
[00:24:28] and gathered nearly 700 faithful at the Zola parish in
[00:24:31] Kinkala. It is certain that these faithful experienced
[00:24:35] their faith, strengthened and reassured by the presence of a medical
[00:24:38] team from the Pool civil security territorial command who
[00:24:42] provided health care for 122 of
[00:24:45] them.
[00:25:56] On Saturday, September 26, 2026, around
[00:25:59] 4 PM, a bushfire broke out near
[00:26:03] the Total Energy Congo service station in Kinkala, in
[00:26:07] the Pool department, threatening to spread
[00:26:10] to the transformer cabin of the Congo Electric Energy Company
[00:26:14] and to the Taringari neighborhood.
[00:26:18] Thanks to the intervention of the
[00:26:21] security territorial command, the fire was brought under
[00:26:25] control
[00:27:35] In our neighborhoods, burning garbage seems like a trivial
[00:27:38] gesture to quickly dispose of waste.
