The blame is entirely on the Government of DRC. I get surprised as they have neglected their musicians. It only takes a letter drafted by Ministry of Foreign Affairs notifying nations which have these stupid idiots on their terrorist acts. Surely we all have greviances on the governance of some of our Governments but we cant stop our musicians or sportsmen from peforming outside our countries.

The musicians themselves are busy fighting each other over silly things including little money that the govt donates to the associations the musicians have formed in kinshasa.
No Sly. A musician who is a citizen of a country and who contributes to the GDP of that country when attacked outside the country by a terorist, should not complain to his Government for action to be taken. This is why we have intelligence information which is transmitted by the mission abroad (Congolese embassy) to the Ministry of foreign affairs of DRC. Especially that the security of their president is threatened as combatufis are from the opposition side.The Government of DRC is aware of this not by musicians complaining but information must have been coming even from the countries were combatufis live. The blame is on the Government not musicians.

The blame is on the Government not musicians.Although the chaps are officially listed as a terrorist group or so i believe, they are nothing but ordinary individuals with nothing much to do and have no power or influence. They do not possess arms so to the congolese govt they are just overzealous individuals causing trouble in diaspora and musicians themselves should be able to deal with them or start the process of dealing with them. These same combattants managed to get a lawyer in their successful blockage of JB Mpiana's concert at Zenith so why can't JB Mpiana, Koffi,Werra ,Ferre, Fally and other stars come together and hire big lawyers in Europe to tackle these guys and put them where they belong, in jail and detention centres. If some of them could be deported back that would send a message to the others that they cannot play with the liberties of others and expect to go free in democratic nations where they seek refuge.
