He was transferred to the General Prosecutor’s Office near the Kinshasa/Matete Court of Appeal on
Friday, July 07, 2022 before being questioned.
Omelonga allegedly uttered damaging accusation which were defamatory of the Denise Nyakeru foundation. one of the organization the Tshisekedi dynasty is using to pilfer state coffers.
