DRC lawmakers approve four ratification bills covering $625 million for women entrepreneurs, primary education, maternal health and emergency preparedness. Four development-financing measures approved by the National Assembly direct major support toward women-led businesses, primary education, maternal and child nutrition, and stronger emergency preparedness. KINSHASA — October 20, 2026 — The Democratic Republic of the Congo has taken a major step toward mobilizing $625 million in additional development financing after the National Assembly adopted four ratification bills connected to agreements with the International Development Association, the World Bank Group institution supporting development programmes in lower-income countries. The measures were adopted in second reading during a plenary session held in Kinshasa on Monday, October 19. According to the Congolese Press Agency , the four bills received 334 votes in favour, one against and no abstentions following an article-by-article examination. The financing package brings together four programmes designed to improve economic opportunity and essential public services across the country. $200 Million to Support Entrepreneurs and Small Businesses The first allocation provides $200 million in additional financing for TRANSFORME, a programme supporting the empowerment of women entrepreneurs and the development of micro, small and medium-sized enterprises. The programme is intended to help businesses strengthen their capacity, expand their activities and contribute to job creation, with particular attention given to enterprises owned or led by women. Digital Congo reported that the initiative forms part of the country's wider economic-transformation agenda. $200 Million to Strengthen Primary Education A further $200 million will support PERSE, the Emergency Project for Equity and Strengthening of the Education System. The programme aims to reduce the financial burden of schooling on Congolese households, expand access to primary education in selected provinces and strengthen the foundations of the national education system.

The programme focuses on improving access to nutrition services for children from birth to 23 months, pregnant women and breastfeeding mothers in the areas covered by the project. It reinforces national efforts to give children a healthier start in life and provide essential support to mothers during pregnancy and early childhood. $150 Million to Improve Emergency Preparedness The fourth measure provides $150 million for the Regional Emergency Preparedness and Inclusive Recovery Project, known as REPAIR.

Development Financing Connected to Everyday Priorities Together, the four measures connect a major national financing package to priorities that directly affect Congolese families: stronger businesses, more employment opportunities, wider access to education, improved nutrition and faster support during emergencies. The National Assembly's vote demonstrates institutional action to advance programmes capable of producing measurable social and economic benefits. It also reinforces cooperation between the Congolese Government and the International Development Association in sectors central to the country's long-term development.

DR Congo and Algeria sign a hydrocarbons cooperation agreement covering oil exploration, refining, petrochemicals, technology transfer and training. The agreement opens new opportunities for technical cooperation, skills development and investment across the Congolese oil and gas value chain. KINSHASA — The Democratic Republic of the Congo and the People's Democratic Republic of Algeria have strengthened their economic partnership through a major cooperation agreement covering the hydrocarbons sector. The agreement was signed in Algiers during the working visit of DRC Minister of State for Hydrocarbons Acacia Bandubola Mbongo. According to the Congolese Press Agency , the framework covers exploration, production, refining, petrochemicals, training and technological cooperation in the energy sector. The visit brought Minister Bandubola together with Algerian Minister of State for Hydrocarbons Mohamed Arkab and senior officials from the two countries' energy institutions. The Algerian Press Service reported that the discussions focused on strengthening bilateral relations and expanding cooperation across the hydrocarbons industry. The partnership reflects the Congolese Government's commitment to diversifying its strategic alliances and mobilizing African expertise to accelerate the development of the country's energy resources. Algeria brings extensive experience through its hydrocarbons industry and national energy institutions, including Sonatrach and the Algerian Petroleum Institute. This expertise will support knowledge-sharing, technical training and the development of Congolese professionals across the petroleum and gas industries. A planned partnership between Sonahydroc and the Algerian Petroleum Institute will focus on training Congolese engineers and executives. Cooperation is also expected to support technology transfer, modernization and stronger management of the hydrocarbons value chain. As detailed by Africa News Agency , the cooperation framework also encompasses oil and gas field development, transportation, marketing, digitalization and innovation. For the DRC, the agreement represents an important opportunity to transform its natural-resource potential into expertise, productive capacity and long-term economic value. It can help strengthen national institutions, support local skills development and create a stronger foundation for future investment in exploration, processing and energy infrastructure. The initiative also advances South-South cooperation by bringing together two major African countries around shared ambitions for energy sovereignty and continental development.

Lazola Maku’s biography covers his age, Ubuntu development, family background, Amajita achievements and Mamelodi Sundowns signing in October 2026. Lazola Maku is a South African midfielder whose rise through Ubuntu Football and the national youth teams has brought him to Mamelodi Sundowns. On 20 October 2026, Sundowns announced his signing, according to GOAL’s report reproducing the club’s welcome statement. The move follows a period as a free agent and a growing record with Amajita, South Africa’s Under-20 side. At 19, Maku already has a continental youth title and a place in CAF’s tournament Best XI behind him. His story also includes education, family responsibility and the challenge of turning youth-team achievement into a sustained club career. Who is Lazola Maku? Lazola Maku is a South African midfielder born on 10 April 2007. An Ubuntu-developed player and Amajita captain, he helped South Africa win the 2025 Under-20 Africa Cup of Nations and earned tournament Best XI recognition. His Mamelodi Sundowns signing was announced in October 2026. The Sundowns move opens a new chapter GOAL’s signing report identifies Maku as a free-agent arrival following his departure from Siwelele FC. It reproduces Sundowns’ announcement welcoming him to the club, moving the story beyond the earlier reports of negotiations. The opportunity comes at a formative point. Maku has earned recognition through age-group football, while the next stage concerns his development within a new club environment. A signing announcement establishes the move; selection, playing time and the role he earns must follow on the pitch. For Maku, the immediate task is to build on his midfield experience and leadership without treating his youth honours as a guarantee of senior success. His career remains at an early stage, even as the achievements behind the move are substantial. His age, height and Cape Town background Maku was born on 10 April 2007 , making him 19 years old on 20 October 2026 . FIFA’s 2025 Under-20 World Cup squad list records that birth date, lists him as a midfielder and gives his height as 169 centimetres . The height is a tournament-record measurement rather than a new medical assessment. In a June 2025 interview, he described a background connecting Cape Town with Qumbu in the Eastern Cape. Those places form part of the personal story behind a football career that has taken him through academy, reserve and international youth competition.

For Maku, the immediate task is to build on his midfield experience and leadership without treating his youth honours as a guarantee of senior success. His career remains at an early stage, even as the achievements behind the move are substantial. ADVERTISEMENT His age, height and Cape Town background Maku was born on 10 April 2007 , making him 19 years old on 20 October 2026 . FIFA’s 2025 Under-20 World Cup squad list records that birth date, lists him as a midfielder and gives his height as 169 centimetres . The height is a tournament-record measurement rather than a new medical assessment. In a June 2025 interview, he described a background connecting Cape Town with Qumbu in the Eastern Cape. Those places form part of the personal story behind a football career that has taken him through academy, reserve and international youth competition. Ubuntu gave him an early senior opportunity Maku developed at Ubuntu before joining SuperSport United’s structures. His former coach Moritz Kossmann recalled giving him an ABC Motsepe League debut at 14 in an interview with iDiski Times . That distinction is useful: his first senior opportunity in the lower divisions came before his later progress toward top-flight football. Academy development, reserve-team appearances and a Premiership debut are different milestones. Kossmann’s account also places Maku within a group of Ubuntu-developed players who later represented South Africa. It shows a development pathway built over several years, rather than a player appearing suddenly because of one tournament or transfer. Continental recognition with Amajita The 2025 Under-20 Africa Cup of Nations provided a decisive platform. South Africa won its first title in the competition, and Maku was included in CAF’s official tournament Best XI , announced on 19 May 2025. His selection was individual recognition within a team achievement. It should be distinguished from the tournament’s Best Player award, which CAF gave to Tylon Smith. The distinction helps explain Maku’s reputation without exaggerating it. He was recognized among the competition’s leading performers, while the continental title belonged to the whole South African team under Raymond Mdaka. ADVERTISEMENT Austria, captaincy and professional habits By September 2026, Maku had spent time on trial with SV Ried, Wacker Innsbruck and Rapid Vienna. In a direct interview carried by SABC Sport , he described the experience as an education in professional expectations and adapting to another football environment. “Being a professional at an early age is really important,” he said. He returned to lead Amajita’s COSAFA campaign, having previously worn the armband on occasions during the 2025 AFCON. A trial is an assessment opportunity, however, and should not be described as a completed European transfer. The same interview recorded comparisons with N’Golo Kanté, linked to his stature and playing style. Such comparisons describe how others saw him; they do not make the two players’ records or abilities equivalent. Family support and education Maku has spoken directly about the people who raised him. In his Sunday World interview , he said: “I was raised by my mother and grandmother.” He explained that their support motivated him and spoke about wanting to help his younger brother. His account places family responsibility alongside football ambition. It is his own description of his upbringing, rather than a reason to speculate about relatives’ private lives. Education was part of that development too.
