Outspoken and former Congolese Communication Minister Lambert Mende, has been appointed Chairman of the Board of Directors for the Congolese Maritime, by President Felix Tshisekedi.
The appointment comes as a surprise given Mende's influential role in the Common Front for Congo, a coalition group which is seen as a threat to Felix Tshisekedi's leadership.
Mende became very unpopular during his time as communication minister, for defending the brutal regime of Joseph Kabila; and many Congolese would have hoped that with Kabila out of power, Mende will also disappear from the Presidential circle.
The appointment of Lambert Mende forms part of the major changes President Tshisekedi is introducing within the leadership of Public Enterprises.
Other new appointees includes former Transport Minister Jose Makila, who has been named the Chairman of the Board of Directors for the Ports and Transports entity (SCPT)
