Authors: Albert Kolembela Bokomba, Enoch Lokwa Batema, Aimerance Lobanga & Jeannette Lisingo Bakyokyo

ABSTRACT

Unemployment is a real fact in Congolese society in general and in Boyomaise in particular. Young people and adults alike are all unemployed and this causes several evils in society, which is how on the one hand we find delinquents, armed bandits, rebels etc.

The Congolese government can no longer satisfy the Congolese youth. Academics, state graduates and people who have not studied are all mired in unemployment, which is why this situation has touched our sensibilities as sociologists.
