At the #WorldCup 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 #PatriceLumumba, the first Prime Minister of an independent Congo. This story provides historical background on who killed #Lumumba and why.
