The Hakizumwami Commission, March 2007

The North-Kivu provincial authorities aware of the appalling insecurity in the province setup a commission to enquire o the roots of the insecurity. It is the Hakizumwami Commission. "Hakizumwami"  in the local language in North-Kivu means " the king is the one who saves lives". This same word might mean " the king is the one who makes rich". The name comes from the words: hakiza ( from the verb"gukiza" meaning " saving ones'life " or "making someone rich") + umwami ( meaning"the king"). Just from these words one can tell i which circumstances/environment the chief of that commission was born. It can also tell a lot what he thinks a king is as the name has a great impact on the human being in the bantu philosophy.

The report of the Commission was published in French ( the DRC is a french speaking country). While we are still working on the English version we want you to taste the original document in French.click COMMISSION_HAKIZUMWAMI to view it. We have reproduced it integraly as published by the North-Kivu provincial authorities.

When it comes right down to it, how you work out is very important.
