Gubernatorial elections will take place in the Democratic Republic of Congo in 2024 to elect the governors and vice-governors of Kinshasa and the 23 provinces not under state of siege (North Kivu and Ituri provinces are currently under military/police administration). A candidate governor and vice-governor are elected together on one ticket by indirect ballot by the members of the provincial assembly using a two-round system were the second round is used to select between the top two tickets of the first round if no ticket gets an absolute majority.[1]
The elections will take place in four parts. The elections of the governors of Kinshasa and 19 provinces will be held April 29 at the same time as the senate elections. This is followed by the election of the governor of Equateur on May 24 and, on May 26, of the one of Mai-Ndombe. The election of the last two governors will be scheduled after the July elections to complete the provincial assemblies of Kwilu and Nord-Ubangi.[2] [3] [4] [5]
These elections follow the re-election of President Félix Tshisekedi at the 2023 presidential election as well as the legislative and provincial elections held concurrently, with the results of the latter leading to the complete renewal of 22 of the 26 provincial assemblies whose members are responsible for electing governors.
