Talk:Moïse Katumbi Chapwe
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I am Godfrey Kisela, from Katanga province in DRC, and I live in the UK. I had the opportunity of meeting governor Moise and his twin sisters at the age of 11 when they came to study in Kapolowe-Mission(near the mineral rich city of Likasi)in the late 70s. He was a great admirer of football and he was hardly seen alone. We were classmates as well, sitting side by side. He was very good at maths and I was very good at languages. It was a perfect match. His generosity is legendary. He brought me and other kids bars of chocolate and I gave him sweet potatoes in return. He is also a humble chap. To be acceptable among his peers who were so poor, Moise refused to wear expensive clothes and shoes. He appeared just like anybody else and that earned him love, admiration and respect. Whenever a teacher would ask to appoint somebody to be the classroom leader while away for a short period, Moise was the first to volunteer. He also organized football matches between different classrooms. And one could see in him a future leader. I was not surprised when I heard that Moise Katumbi Chapwe has been elected as the Governor of Katanga province. There is no doubt that under his God-given leadership, Katanga is going to be transformed and it will be one of the best places in the world.
