The Minister of Primary, Secondary and Technical Education (EPST) in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Tony Mwaba Kazadi, has reportedly confessed that he ‘accid£ntally impregnated’ his Deputy Minister, Aminata Namasia.
The Heritage Times reports that Kazadi and Namasia, despite being married, developed feelings for each other as they worked together in the DRC education ministry.
A DRC journalist, Lungila John took to Twitter to reveal the affair between both officials that led to the deputy education minister’s pregnancy.
According to the report, Namasia was appointed the National Deputy Minister of Primary, Secondary and Technical Education in the Democratic Republic Of Congo under Jean-Michel Sama Lukonde’s cabinet on April 12, 2021.
Namasia, has however, refuted the allegations on her Twitter page, claiming that: “Beyond my official and public duties, I have a life that must be respected by all. A right guaranteed to all Congolese by our Constitution.
Tarn¥§hing my image should not be a tolerated habit. Indeed, it could h@rm 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 att@ck my opinions and political actions rather than opting for practices tending to sm£ar my person.”
