World Cup Moment #2: Lumumba Lives!

At the World Cup on Tuesday [June 23, 2026] — a man in a red suit stood
completely still for 90 minutes in the stands. Then he covered his mouth
and used two fingers to simulate pointing a gun to his head….His name is
Michel Kuka Mboladinga — known as “Lumumba Vea,” which means “Lumumba
Lives.” For more than a decade he has stood motionless at every DR
[Democratic Republic] Congo match — suit and tie, arm raised — as a living
tribute to Patrice Lumumba, the first Prime Minister of an independent
Congo. This story provides historical background on who killed Lumumba and
why.
