Kabila’s formation of the FRN rebel group has triggered a political earthquake within the ranks of government.
It has emerged that Colonel Demumba Ndolo Ghislain, the Second-in-Command for Operations and Intelligence of the 61st Infantry Brigade based in Nyunzu, has defected from FARDC and joined the FRN rebels in Goma.
Earlier on Tuesday Brigadier General François Kamanzi, commander of operations for the 12th Military Region in Kongo-Central, defected and joined the the FRN rebels.
“Furthermore, we announce that two other officers have also joined our ranks. Their identities will be made public in the coming days,” said Lawrence Kanyuka the spokesperson for the FRN rebel outfit.
