UDPS Spokesman Valentin Mubake was on Congolese TV again. Blogger Tony Katombe explains (FR) that Mubake unveiled attempts by electoral commission head Rev. Malu-Malu to act as a demographer [1] by deflating population numbers in regions where UDPS is popular. In Katombe's words, Mubake also charged that international community officials in the DRC “are involved with illicit business in the mining industry [1]” and hence “would not for anything in the world like to see the DRC stabilize.” Mubake promised to produce evidence if necessary.
