The meeting slated to be held tomorrow on January 17th, 2019 will see 16 Heads of State and Government at the African Union (AU) headquarters convene in Addis, Ethiopia.
The meeting will be preceded by the emergency meeting of the Southern Africa Development Community (SADC) in which Kagame also was invited in.
The Democratic Republic of Congo held provincial and presidential elections on December 30th, 2018 after which the National Independent Electoral Commission (CENI) in DRC announced Felix Tshisekedi the winner.
Martin Fayulu, a presidential candidate, dismissed the results and filed an appeal at the Constitutional Court.
In a hearing on Tuesday, the Prosecutor told Court that Fayulu had no ample evidence supporting his allegations that elections were rigged hence demanding the manual recounting of votes.
SADC also advised the DRC to verify the votes proposing a unity government comprised of sides of Martin Fayulu and Félix Tshisekedi in a bid to avoid violence and restore peace.
