"These individuals are exercising their freedom," which "does not concern the President nor the PPRD, much less the FCC,” responded the deputy permanent secretary of the PPRD, Ferdinand Kambere on Thursday, March 28, 2024, after discovering a photo of these members of the People's Party for Reconstruction and Democracy (PPRD) during a rally in Kiwanja alongside Bertrand Bisimwa, president of M23, and Corneille Nangaa.

These are Adam Chalwe, Yannick Tshisola, and Henry Maggie who have joined the Congo River Alliance (AFC) headed by Corneille Nangaa, former president of the Ceni.

They were all on Thursday, March 28, 2024, dressed in military attire alongside Bertrand Bisimwa, president of M23, and Corneille Nangaa at this rally.

When the PPRD was in power, Yannick Tshisola was the deputy chief of staff of the governor of Lualaba, Richard Muyej and a high-ranking youth leader of this party.

Henry Maggie Walifetu is a politician and political analyst. He was arrested and spent two years in the Makala Central Prison for insulting the head of state.

The deputy permanent secretary of the PPRD emphasized in his remarks that the political formation of Joseph Kabila is not concerned by the defection of its four members to the rebellion of the Congo River Alliance (AFC) of Corneille Nangaa and the M23/RDF.
