Kleptocracy
Paul Kagame is the new Marshal Mobutu Sese Seko Kuku Ngbendu Wa Za Banga.
Here is why:
1.He is a military dictator.
2.He is the head of a totalitarian regime
3.He has amassed personal wealth by pillaging and pocketing DR Congo’s mineral resources.
4.He has re written the history of Rwanda and destroyed all remnants and relics of the past and imposed Himself and his regime as the alpha and omega of Rwanda and all this , like Mobutu ,with the support of the west.
5.He ordered executions of opponents before he ascended to assuming the presidency he was exercising behind the scenes, and he continues to murder at will with the same theatrical cruelty.
6.He is also the object of an expansive and perverse personality cult.
7.He is corrupt and has embezzled millions in aid money ( what the panama papers exposed is just the tip of the iceberg).
8.He is ruthless and uncompromising and suffers from appalling entitlement.
9.He is shockingly extravagant, spending thousands in luxury accommodation , private jets, you name it.
10.He has ruled for 24 years …and counting
Joseph Kabila is obviously a pawn.
Kagame is the de facto ruler of DR Congo.
Like Mobutu, he mistakenly thinks he is untouchable and he is so drunk on absolute power that he does not see that the tide has changed.
Kagame is ailing with chronic fatigue, the one man rule model is slowly doing him in too.
Since he has refused to hand over power , he will also be overthrown.
The question remains where will he flee to ? ( because unlike Mobutu, Kagame has a lot of enemies and very few friends , if any.)
