Congo - Mobutu and Kabila mmet
(5 May 1997) T/I: 10:05:37
Zairean President Mobutu and rebel leader Laurent Kabila met face-to-face for the first time on Sunday (4/5) but only agreed to hold another meeting. President Mobutu Sese Seko did not, as expected, announce his resignation.
UN envoy Mohamed Sahnoun told a press conference that South African President Nelson Mandela would reconvene another meeting between Mobutu and Kabila within six to 10 days.
Mobutu and Kabila met for 90 minutes on board the South African navy ship Outeniqua, docked in the Congolese port of Pointe-Noire, in the presence of South African President Nelson Mandela.

In this video, Kabila is acting weird and averting Mobutu's gaze because he believed the rumour that if you looked Mobutu directly in the eyes you die. Back then there were many myths and legends about Mobutu's supposed superhuman abilities, Kabila seemed to have believed one of those myths or maybe he was just being cautious just in case lol.

The rumours were true, however he lost that power in the early/mid 90’s as he abandoned many of our ancestral principals and traditions. Our God gave him those superhuman powers and our same God took them from him, hence why he eventually lost the republic and eventually died that same year, it was no coincidence.
At this point Mobutu was so ill, prostrate cancer had really eaten him up. He needed support from Mandela for him to stand. The end was so near. The meeting was not very necessary.

How was he a champion of peace? He sided with foreign rebel groups that wanted to overthrow a sovereign country and invited others to invade Congo? He was a puppet for the west that wanted to bring instability in Congo.
Mzee Mandela, Mobutu, and Kabila, may God remember their souls, their peace efforts and forgive them their shortcomings as men. We give God thanks and we pray to God to bless their nations, Republic of South Africa and Democratic Republic of Congo, respectively for their sake, with peace, unity and prosperity. That's my prayer request to God for these nations. Asante sana.
At this stage in May 1997, Mobutu was very ill and had nothing to bargain with, his army was in full retreat and crumbling, the rebel forces were on the outskirts of Kinshasa closing in for the kill, the meeting was totally pointless.

I never knew such a meeting even took place. I wonder why Kabila even bothered.
President Mandela was the best person out of everyone in the video. He was a great African Statesman. Prime Minister Ian Smith of Rhodesia said so by praising him for being Africa’s first statesman. Furthermore, President Mandela was the closest thing to a Christlike leader from anywhere! God Bless President Mandela!
Ironical that Mandela has energy to lift up Mobutu @2:40
When democracy is just an empty word is the jungle of Africa the two leaders are forced to meet in a foreign warship.
DO YOU REALIZED THAT ALL THREE ARE DIED?? VANITY OF VANITY
Dieu est Grand, L'unique et Le Vraie. Live pour Toujours.
Although Mobutu is wearing a structured suit, you can tell he is very skinny underneath. It seems the cancer was really eating at him at this point. He looks so fragile, miserable and weak, but determined not to give up power.

@@joshuagrover795 You’re right. The meeting was just political theatre. Kabila had been working on this rebellion for decades he wasn’t gonna give up, especially with a weakened opponent. Mobutu was delusional. Years with absolute power made it impossible for him to face the truth. His time was up.

Quand on y pense aujourd’hui on peut dire qu’il peut être pointé du doigt pour cette erreur oui. Mais à l’époque dans un contexte où il fallait absolument changer les choses il n’avait pas le choix j’imagine. Et peut-être qu’il ne savait pas que les choses allaient mal tourné avec gens 😕

Mobutu was not that corrupt....he was managing the size of country from Scotland to Sicily... think about how hard France or Germany has hard time managing their own countries even with the resources stolen abroad...think about how hard it is for Mobutu to manage a country that only maybe 30% of the population has a Western education
Mandela wasn’t the man everyone thinks he is. He sided with rebel groups, foreign rebel group for the matter, only using Kabila as the face of a foreign aggression. He’s a cowardly compromiser, you can tell that Mobutu was disgusted by him, didn’t even look him in the eyes or shake his hands.
Greatest greatest leader only Mandela
Unbelievable The Le Marshall Mobutu being assisted to stand up by Old man Mandela
Mobutu should have surrendered and resigned then hand over power to Kabila. It could have ended well for him. He made a big mistake to go away on exile
Como o Mobutu queria tanto o poder ele preferio continuar a governar e na hora que o fim dele chegou ele fugiu como um covarde deixando o país num caos
Toute ces comedie c'est acourageant
He seems terribly displeased with Nelson Mandela.
