« We call on the authorities to simply lift the curfew which no longer has its meaning, » said Georges Kapiamba, president of the Congolese Association for Access to Justice (ACAJ), speaking through a local medium in Kinshasa against the maintenance of the curfew until now, which according to him, is also one of the elements at the root of the traffic jams that the people of Kinshasa face.
« We also believe that with the limited time, everyone is rushing to get home on time and this creates haste in everyone’s houses and therefore causes the traffic jams we have today. One of the solutions for us is to lift the curfew, which is no longer important, » Kapiamba said.
It should be recalled that it is since 18 December 2020 that the curfew decision was taken by the authorities, to curb the easy spread of the second wave of COVID-19.
