Refusing to grow old:
Another characteristic
that I have observed with most Congolese elite, especially males is that, while
they accept to be called Yaya, most prefer to be called: “Grand frère” and
paradoxically women who would not want to be linked to anything old, prefer to
be called "MAMA". In Congo it is the men who don’t want to have any reference to
their ages and not the women.
Why Congolese men don’t want to be called Papa
There is a
reason why some Congolese Men don’t want to be called Papa. It is simply
because calling them Papa means to them, that, you are indirectly refusing them
from dating younger girls, which to them, is not only a sign of their permanent
juvenile nature but also a sign of their political power and wealth. Some old men in Congo, especially those in
power have an insatiable lust for young girls to point that, if they were in a
civilize country; most would have been arrested for pedophilia. Furthermore,
their insatiable yearn for underage girls could easily make the country to be
ranked, among the highest consumers of aphrodisiacs in Africa and even in the
world. Anyway, during my stay and
research, I didn’t come across any such statistics and I doubt whether there
are any known import statistics of Viagra in Congo. But I am convinced that, if
findings were made Congo could top the chart of consumers on the continent. Congolese
elite don’t only consume western made aphrodisiacs; they are also champions in
the consumption of a locally produced aphrodisiac: Encorou. It is claimed by
users that, the best quality locally produced sexual enhancement drugs: Encorou,
are imported from Lubumbashi in the DRC.
Consequences
The adverse effect
in the abusive usage of sexual enhancement drugs by old political barons in
Congo is the rising number of sudden deaths in the process of attempting to
show sexual vigor in bed to young girls. And in Congo,
whenever one old influential politician who belongs to the ruling PCT party
dies in the latter situation, it is euphemistically claimed that, he died in
action or as it is put in French: “il est mort en action”. However, officially,
it is almost always claimed that, he died of cardiac arrest.
