 U.S imposes sanctions on former Congo President Joseph Kabila The United States on Thursday imposed sanctions on former Democratic Republic of Congo President Joseph Kabila for his support of ‌Rwanda-backed M23 rebels and for fueling political instability in Congo's troubled east. The U.S. Treasury Department said M23 and its political-military arm, the Congo River Alliance (AFC), had been stoking violent conflict in eastern DRC, resulting in the deaths of thousands of civilians and a mass displacement crisis. Treasury said Kabila had provided financial support to the ​AFC in order to influence the political situation in eastern DRC, while encouraging DRC troops to defect and join AFC forces. ​It said Kabila was working to regain influence over the government by backing a candidate opposed to the current ⁠leader.

Bode George, a prominent Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain and member of the party's Board of Trustees, has revealed why he fell out with Nyesom Wike, whom he initially supported in opposition to Atiku Abubakar before the 2023 presidential election.


According to George, the root of the problem lies in the disruption of the PDP's zoning arrangement by Iyorchia Ayu, the then-national chairman, and Atiku. He claimed that the party's top positions were unfairly zoned to the northern region, prompting him to temporarily support Wike's group during the 2023 general election build-up.


George explained that he tried to reason with Atiku and Ayu before taking sides with Wike, but they refused to listen. However, he eventually dumped Wike's group when he discovered they planned to support Bola Tinubu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate.


George emphasized that he strongly opposed Wike's group supporting Tinubu, citing his experience with Tinubu's governance style during his tenure as Lagos State governor. He warned Wike's group that they underestimated Tinubu's "modus operandi," which he claimed was well-known in Lagos.
