The Congolese people do not have what it takes to be one nation, Digital Congo writes in response to call for a united country. There is no where else in the world, says Digital Congo, where people who have had such a history of oppression and exploitation ‘would not have the capacity and the willingness to fight for their country's development, rule of law, and good governance’. As a ‘people’ we do not share common interest, common history, and common vision of our future, says Digital Congo. Most people in most parts of Congo ‘identify themselves with nations in the neighbouring countries where they have a common culture, aspiration and blood ties’, and would rather fight for neighbouring countries. While secession is still seen as a controversial idea, as long as Congo remains a single state, ‘all Congolese people will never live up to their potentials’ Digital Congo suggests.
