Summary

"When we decide to remain independent, we earn nearly nothing. But we try to live through because we believe firmly in what we do, in the struggle we engage in". Independent journalist and political activist, Luc Malembe knows the risks of resistance. Currently the campaign coordinator of Martin Fayulu's Lamuka International platform in his city of Bunia, he is Elimu Podcast's guest for its series "Kongo". As the presidential election was initially set for December 23rd 2018, now postponed to the 30th, we discuss by his side the security context in the country's Eastern provinces, the controversies around the voting machines, the electoral file and the impartiality of the electoral commission as well as his past engagement alongside La Lucha and the information website www.buniaactualite.com, which he co-founded.
