Joseph Kabila: 454,547 – 89.80%
Jean-Pierre Bemba: 1909 – 0.38%
Politics: This eastern province is sparsely populated and fairly isolated. With limited access to print media or television, voters complained that they received inadequate information about the candidates. To bridge this gap, local NGOs and MONUC, the U.N. mission in the Congo, provided civic education and training sessions. Ultimately, eastern favorite Joseph Kabila won the province hands down.
Natural Resources: The Twangiza-Namoya gold belt runs through Maniema and neighboring South Kivu.
