Tens of thousands of supporters of DR Congo President Félix Tshisekedi took to the streets of Kinshasa on Tuesday, marching along Boulevard Lumumba to the Stade des Martyrs in a show of backing for the government and a proposed constitutional amendment that would allow Tshisekedi a third term in office. The rally, organised by the ruling party UDPS (Union for Democracy and Social Progress), passed without incident — a notable contrast to the violent suppression of an opposition march on 15 September that has since prompted a government inquiry. Participants also used the demonstration to voice opposition to what they described as Rwandan aggression in eastern Congo, reflecting the dual political pressures facing the Kinshasa government.
