They are also ba ndoki, because they do very nasty things and satansim became very huge these last years in Kinshasa (policits, business, etc.) and its not a secret anymore, everybody knows what things they do (eating poop, satanic orgies, blood sacrifices, gay-sex, etc.). They don't care about the people suffering, they only want money, building villa's and having expensive cars.

I visited my oncle in 2017 and he had like 7 jeeps, but his employees aren't even paid well and he claimed that Joseph Kabila made DR Congo great again that people are well paid, that there are jobs, etc. I didn't even react. The same day I went to University of Kinshasa when I was on my way to Mont Ngafula and also visited those houses where the students are living and I was shocked.

Why he was in exil ?

Because back in 1990 he sung a song against Mobutu called Trop c'est Trop. The song made the governement ban from then all Tabu Ley-songs and albums in Zaire.


Then when he was a Paris, some Mobutu-supporters said that they had beautifel picture for him (a picture of a killed  person cut into pieces) and that Mobutu said that he would do that to him if he would return. It scared him alot and he didn't even want to watch to the picture. Then in 1993 he released the album Exil-Ley which had some songs against Mobutu's regime. The song "Le Glas a Sonne" became very famous when he returned in 1997. In the time that he was living in Paris (1990-1993) before going to the United States, he made alot of interviews against Mobutu's regime.



That exil kind of killed his career and his fame. People say that its because Franco's death that Tabu Ley lost his fame, but they forgot that he was in exil some months after his death and that all his albums were forbidden in Kinshasa.



People said that Koffi Olomide, Werrason, J.B. Mpiana, Fally Ipupa, etc. had to sing against Joseph Kabila, but they forgot that nobody support supported Tabu Ley when he was in exil and he wasn't even rewarded by L.D. Kabila's regime for having fought against Mobutu's.

Thank you for the story bro
