The economy minister of the Democratic Republic of Congo's outgoing government, Vital Kamerhe, has been elected as the head of the country's National Assembly. This comes just three days after an attack on his home, which officials say was an attempted coup. Kamerhe's appointment to this key position in the government demonstrates his continued influence and political power in the country. The attack on his home highlights the ongoing political instability and security challenges faced by the DRC. It remains to be seen how Kamerhe's new role will impact the country's political landscape and efforts to achieve stability and peace [669cdf6c].
