By Congolese Education Minister admits accidental pregnancy of Deputy
Tony Mwaba Kazadi, the Minister of Primary, Secondary, and Technical Education (EPST) in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), has confessed to impregnating his Deputy Minister, Aminata Namasia, describing it as an accidental occurrence.
Reports indicate that Kazadi and Namasia, both married individuals, developed romantic feelings for each other while working together in the DRC education ministry.
The affair between the two officials, which led to the pregnancy of the deputy education minister, was exposed by local journalist Lungila John, who took to Twitter to share the information.
Citizens of the DRC have expressed strong criticism towards Kazadi and Namasia, accusing them of engaging in inappropriate behavior and immorality.
Archy Lema, a DRC citizen and Twitter user, condemned the situation, referring to it as a source of shame for the country. Lema also remarked that Namasia is unfit to provide education to young women in the nation.
Another Congolese citizen stated that if politicians in the country, particularly Kazadi and Namasia, wish to be addressed as “excellencies” or “honourables,” their conduct should reflect excellence and honor, especially considering their popularity and wealth, which sets them apart from other Congolese citizens.
Namasia was appointed as the National Deputy Minister of Primary, Secondary, and Technical Education in the DRC under Jean-Michel Sama Lukonde’s cabinet on April 12, 2021, as reported by The Heritage Times.
