President Félix Tshisekedi, midway through his second term ending in 2028, has consolidated power via a key purge on March 18, sidelining Senate Vice-President Modeste Bahati Lukwebo—the last major dissident—for opposing constitutional amendments to extend presidential terms from five to seven years and potentially scrap two-term limits ahead of 2028 polls. Catholic bishops warned on March 25 against such revisions amid eastern DRC instability, but opposition rallies have not threatened his rule. A fragile February ceasefire with M23 rebels holds unevenly despite violations, while Tshisekedi pursues Angola-mediated talks and U.S. sanctions on Rwanda. Trader consensus at 90% "No" reflects his coup-proofing successes and lack of viable removal mechanisms like impeachment or military overthrow by year-end, barring major escalations such as nationwide unrest or dialogue collapse.
