“If the Prime Minister does not have control over the Ministries of Finance, Justice, and the Interior, which are key ministries, she will be unable to lead the government,” declared Christian Mwando Nsimba, who knows what he’s talking about having been in charge of the Ministry of Planning in the government Samba Lukonde I.

In other words, Judith Suminwa - whose technical skills he acknowledged - will find it difficult to make her mark if the current “crocodiles” are left in place, watch out for Nicolas Kazadi (Finance), Peter Kazadi (Interior), Rose Mutombo (Justice).

For Mwando Nsimba, technically speaking, President Félix Tshisekedi could not have made a better choice than Ms. Judith Suminwa. But being technical in a government is one thing, explains Christian Mwando, and having the capacity to manage it is another.

Since April 1st, the President of the Republic, Félix Tshisekedi has appointed Ms. Judith Suminwa Tuluka as the Prime Minister of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It's a first in the country's history after having seen 34 men pass through the Prime Minister’s office.
