Stacks of ballot boxes
Daniel FinnanThe task facing the Democratic Republic of Congo’s independent electoral commission (Ceni) is immense - 32 million ballots from over 63,000 polling stations to count before 6 December in the first elections it has ever organised. RFI went to Kinshasa’s main counting and compilation centre to see how they are coping with tabulating the choices of the Congolese people.

Hi congolese people here and there.
It is a hard time that the congolese people is going thru but we have to read carefuly our past to see where are we going from Mobutu to....
We can not expect something better as resolution from so called mediator 'South africa' as it started from Mobutu-Mandela-Kabila Laurent... we have seen what was the outcome from a long discussion and the end was the war then L. Kabila passed on. After this step
, the same mediator came again under Thabo Mbeki with 1+4 as resolution from Sun City,which does not exist in the politic world, and the result was the ICC for Jean Pierre Mbemba after the corruption orchestred by T Mbeki. Mbeki was all over in Africa as UN envoy, but he failled to ajust the situations or (case) given mandat, eg: -1 Kenya, until today they do not have yet found the way to settle the differencies between Rahilla Odinga and the President with the proposed plan of "Unit goverment" while the winner was known from the poll.No peace... -2 Zimbabwe still struggling Mugabe send the polls to next year and they are not together with Tswangarai, this is the result of the mediation "unit goverment while the prime won the election, ...no peace at all. The same tried their lucky in Cote D'Ivoire and failed because Ouattara did not give them that chance to go for unit goverment as usual, today He is in power and Gbagbo is there (ICC)and the people are concetrate to work.
For sure the South African will mediate again while their proposal never go far to respond to the people will(DRC), but something must be done as the observers found many errors in the organization of the poll and everybody are talking about it, not only the opposition parties...
WE SWEAR, US OR EU IF YOU LET
WE SWEAR, US OR EU IF YOU LET OPEN THE DOORS AGAIN FOR KABILA TO BE A PRESIDENT IN DRc congo,
you will see what gonna happen, we dont care about death now its too late for us, because we have lost our sister and bothers already they've been killed and rapped by kABILA, KAGAME AND NKUNDA
The committee international should do something in favour of congolese people and if they don't, does means they're supporting yppolite kanambe. and it gonna better for you to come and fetch up your group like, un,monuc out of congo, because we dont need them
we all voted tshisekedi, may kabila cheat or not
we hate him, we dont like him, incompetent president in the world
Tshisekedi is a winner
I'm Kungu, this is a shame to see the people talk about supporting Kabila in DR Congo, who is Joseph kabila: Joseph kabila is a killer of Laurent D. Kabila (ex. president), Aimee Kabila, Armand Tungulu, and many more in our country DR CONGO. Therefore all knows this but why EU couldn't think about this, Congolese people wake up and don't give up like was in Oct. 2006 election, Joseph Kabila's power came from: US and EU those people supported the dictator chosen from themself, therefore this president accepted to give them all precious stones like DIAMONDS, GOLDS and many more. Now in Africa, DR CONGO is the first country rich in all how the people suffering a lot, no no this time we are awake, we need our country to be in peace, only TSHISEKEDI could make DR CONGO in happiness, about 10 years with Joseph Kabila until now who could tell the congolese people any souvenir from Kabila in DR Congo? but Kabila build to TANZANIA, RWANDA he knows 1 day he will be back to their original country, all congoleses corrupted by the gouverment they are in good life position but all people in DR CONGO suffering a lot: no electricity, no water, no food, just killing the people like HITTLER. Congolese people think
