Kikwete noted that the peace seeking mission in the troubled DRC is going on well and that the secret behind the success in DRC was to ensure that what was agreed upon during the first conference on DRC is implemented. The secret behind finding a solution to DRC is by ensuring that each and everyone of us is doing what we agreed upon during the first meeting. The measures that we have taken so far in DRC are a good development as far as the peace seeking mission is concerned. It is important that we find a solution for DRC. People have suffered for long there. They have a right to live peacefully and they have a right to carry on development activities instead of always thinking about war, Kikwete told the Monday conference under UN Secretary General Ban Ki-Moon.
