The present reflection had as a focus, the unearthing of the factors that overshadow the effective implementation of decentralization in the Congolese political system. These factors come in particular in the form of the imperatives of the party-state and the legal imbroglio. That is to say, the national life of the DR Congolese is almost systematically dominated by political parties and groups that hold republican institutions hostage to such an extent that, to access a position of responsibility, it is necessary in most cases be a member of a political party in power. So, having sung and danced a lot is a sure job application and curriculum vitae (CV) to get hired. This is what we call party-states. In this perspective, political parties become structures that serve as springboards for getting a job in public services or being appointed mayor, mayor, etc. In this perspective, the effective implementation of decentralization becomes hypothetical because the criteria are not respected by the political actors who appoint the heads of decentralized territorial entities, while decentralization presupposes the election of local authorities by local populations. This organizational inadequacy is also explained by the various related laws, sometimes pursuing, and this in a paradoxical way, an antipodal order of extravagance.

In this article, we address the issue of the results of the elections held in Africa in general and in DR Congo in particular. It should be noted that each time there is an election, the results of the latter have always been contested because deemed not credible by the stakeholders, hence this article wants to suggest possible solutions so that it stops.
