A Congolese Minister of Education, Tony Mwaba Kazadi, has impregnated his subordinate, Aminata Namasia with claims that it was accidental. Lunaila John, a Reporter in Democratic Republic of Congo reported this via a tweet.
This was disclosed in a tweet post by a Blogger, @SIKAOFFICIAL on twitter. The twee read:
The Ministers’ Appointment
Namasia was appointed as education minister on 12th April 2021. She joined Tony Mwaba Kazadi who was appointed two months earlier.
Kazadi who is also businessman and a politician, has worked in various government position. He has served as the minister of State for planning and development.
Despite the fact that they’re both married, Kazadi and Namasia developed feelings for each other as they worked together.
DRC minister, Kazadi has admitted on impregnating his deputy but in his defence, he described the act as accidental.
Since the revelation of their extra marital affairs, the duo has been under fire and criticism from the citizens of the country, both online and offline . The Congolese has accused them of portraying a bad leadership example by committing this immoral act.
“If politicians in the country more especially Kazadi and Namasia want to be called “excellence” and “honourables” , they must conduct themselves”excellently and honourably” said an angry citizen.
Namasia’s Response
However, Namasia took to her Twitter page to dismiss the allegation. In her tweet, she demanded that privacy be respected. She opined that her political rivals are making attempts to tarnish her image. She asked that her opinions should be a source of their attack and not the image of her marriage.
“Beyond my official and public duties, I have a life that must be respected by all. All right guaranteed to all Congolese by our Constitution”
“Tarnishing my image should not be a tolerated habit”
“Indeed, it could harm not only my commitments but also the image of my married male colleagues and their homes.”
“on the eve of the electoral contests scheduled for December of this year, political detractors can attack my opinions and political actions rather than opting for practices tending to smear my person” she tweeted.
