Deceiving the world
As mentioned
above, the Congolese government uses local and international NGOs to glamorize
her cheatings and manipulations. One such organisation used by the Congolese
government to deceive the world is EITI. But I wonder whether, EITI, which
claims on her web site that, it is an organisation with a global standard, to
promote the open and accountable management of Extractive Resources, is aware
that, her name is being used or travestied by the Congolese government. Whatever the abuses committed by the Congolese
government with her none respect of the organization’s norms, EITI,
nevertheless remains a prestigious organisation that The Republic of Congo is a
member. Once again, it is wishful thinking to believe that, Brazzaville
respects the standards of EITI. In spite the fact that, the Republic of Congo
has succeeded a feat in hoodwinking the entire world with its false statistics
in the areas earlier mentioned, what makes me to smile is the easy with which,
the ruling Nguesso family is using the very instruments or organisations
created to fight against corruption to deceive the world. Hence EITI reports
from Congo Brazzaville need not to be taken seriously. Given the
glaring lies and manipulations of the Nguessos and the Congolese government as earlier
mentioned, it is also beyond comprehension why the heads of EITI and other
organisations with the same objectives can’t figure out that Congo Brazzaville
is a deceitful, corrupt, dishonest, crooked and untrustworthy member.
Why anticorruption organisations can’t catch Brazzaville
To the
discharge of heads or EITI or Publish What Pay and other western bodies such as
the US Department of Energy, Department of Justice, they are unable to discover
the deceitful attitude of Congo Brazzaville’s government because there is no
logic for a regime that wants to hide things or that encourages corruption, to
join organisations that are fighting against corruption. The simple fact that,
the Congolese government is the one that solicits membership to the aforementioned
organisations is where the tricks played by the Nguessos and the Congolese
government lies. For heads of such organisations
think it is out good fate that, Brazzaville wants to join them, hence they can’t
easily decipher the malevolent intentions of the Nguessos and Brazzaville
government. Once again, by joining organisations such as EITI or Publish what
you Pay, Brazzaville easily deceives everybody because all suspicions on her
are dissipated. While organisations such as EITI or Publish What You Pay, have
genuine objectives to brightened transactions between governments and mining
companies, Brazzaville or the ruling Nguesso family have joined these
organisations with their own agenda in mind.
