This initiative aims to ensure that students in these provinces, particularly in North and South Kivu, can take their exams under conditions appropriate to the difficult situation they are facing Minister of National Education Raïssa Malu made this announcement during a joint press briefing with Minister of Communication and Media Patrick Muyaya on Tuesday, March 4, 2025.
