Congolese opposition leader Delly Sesanga (C) takes part in a demonstration against a possible change to the Constitution, in Kinshasa, on September 15, 2026. Clashes broke out on Tuesday and a demonstration was dispersed in the DRC, where the opposition had called for a day of mobilization in several major cities against a proposed constitutional change, an AFP correspondent observed. In the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), the main opposition parties have formed a coalition to block a constitutional amendment project put forward by the ruling majority, which could allow the Congolese president, elected in 2019 and re-elected in 2023, to seek a third term. This coalition, dubbed “C64,” called for a nationwide day of mobilization on Tuesday, but analysts doubt its real capacity to rally people. (Photo by Hardy BOPE / AFP)
