Witnesses say Idengo, who was dressed in military fatigues for the video shoot, was attacked near Kilijiwe. He died on the spot after a bullet hit him in the head.

His killing comes shortly after his release from Munzenze prison, near the entrance to Goma, in an area controlled by AFC/M23 forces.

Delcat Idengo, whose real name is Delphin Katembo Vinyasiki, had long been vocal about governance issues in DR Congo and was arrested multiple times for his music by the government of Felix Tshisekedi.

His death has sent shockwaves through North Kivu, where many saw him as a fearless critic of the ongoing conflict.

The Congolese ministry of and and culture said Delcat Idengo was a committed voice who carried, through his music, the aspirations and hopes of an entire generation.

A Congolese activist group described the musician’s actions as reckless.

“It is an absurd death because he could have avoided it with more caution. These rebels are cruel and must be punished, but let us remain wise in the face of weapons,” the group stated.
