The people of the Democratic Republic of Congo have called on the foreign armies of the United Nations (UN), Rwanda and Uganda to leave their country with immediate effect. The citizens of the Democratic Republic of Congo told our reporter in Goma yesterday that the truth is that if all the foreign armies leave their country there won’t be war any more but lasting peace.

Dr. Henry Pepe, one of the senior residents Goma told our reporter that even the M23 Rebels killing innocent people in the Democratic Republic of Congo are Foreigners invading the former peaceful country in the Great Lakes Region.

The doctor says that the M23 rebels they must be the first to leave Congo. If they don’t leave, then other foreign intervening forces on the side of the government can drive them out of Congo. Ugandan president Museveni and Rwandan president Kagame are believed to be using their country’s resources to finance M23 rebels in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The people of Congo say that even when Uganda and Rwandan troops leave the Democratic Republic of Congo, the M23 rebels will fight with the government and a decisive side will find the equilibrium!

The proposal by the people of Congo comes at a time when the M23 rebel leader Bertrand Bisiimwa is in Uganda conducting meetings with president Museveni.
