Kenya’s Miguna Supports DRC’s Fayulu

Kenyan lawyer Miguna Miguna has expressed his support for DRC opposition politician Martin Fayulu via Twitter.

Fayulu has contested the outcome of the December 2018 elections in DRC, following which Felix Tshisekedi was declared the winner and inaugurated as President. A number of observers, including the country’s Catholic Church, also questioned the official results. However, the Constitutional Court dismissed Fayulu’s challenge.

Miguna wrote to Fayulu on Twitter, “We wish you revolutionary success in your struggle to end the culture of impunity and to restore democracy, rule of law and electoral justice in the DRC. Bravo! #DemocracyNotDespotism.”
