Recent statements by the Democratic Republic of Congo Spokesperson Patrick Muyaya, have sent alarm bells ringing for those praying for a peaceful resolution to armed conflict and political violence.
Muyaya, speaking on Radio Okapi, an eastern Congo-based station sponsored by the UN mission in DRC, proclaimed that they (the DRC government) had "embarked on solving rampant insecurity in the east", and that the only way to do that was through military means.
