The Suminwa government also known as the Suminwa cabinet was formed following the appointment by President Félix Tshisekedi of Judith Suminwa as the first female Prime Minister of the Democratic Republic of the Congo on 1 April 2024.[1]
The government was named on 29 May and was invested by the National Assembly on 12 June more than five months after the 2023 general election. Of the 405 deputies voting, 397 voted for the investiture and 8 abstained. By 14 June most, if not all, of the ministers had taken office and the government met for the first time as the Council of Ministers presided over by the President. This is the fourth government of Tshisekedi's presidency and the first of his second term.[2][3][4][5]
