No, Christian Mwepu used to be a bassplayer. The guy on the rhythm is Guylain Mpungi.

He joined in Maison Mere in 1997 with Flamme Kapaya & Celeo, the three guys came from Golden Tchatcho which used to be Duc Herode's band. Then he participated to all concerts of Maison Mere from the start at bar vis-a-vis until their farewhel concert at l'Esplanade de Palais du Peuple in 1999. After that Werrason left him behind with other musicians and he then left. From then nobody heard something about him.

No he plays rhythm. Back in those days, Maison Mere didn't use the mi-solo,only during their concert at RTNC during that VSS-show. After that they used that spot once on Bercy and the first day of Double Zenith. The mi-solo spot became permanent in 2004 when Thierry Mogratana started to be accepted.

If nobody has heard from him since Palais du Peuple, he probably quit music as a profession.

Usually musicians would either be recruited elsewhere or become a session musican, but it seems like he may have not have been lucky enough for either to happen.
