This market will resolve to “Yes” if Félix Tshisekedi ceases to be President of the Democratic Republic of the Congo for any period of time between market creation and the specified date (ET). Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. An announcement of Félix Tshisekedi's resignation/removal before this market's end date will immediately resolve this market to "Yes", regardless of when the announced resignation/removal goes into effect. If the specified individual is detained, effectively removed from the specified position, or otherwise permanently prevented from fulfilling the duties of the specified position within this market’s timeframe, it will qualify for a “Yes” resolution. The resolution source for this market will be official information from Félix Tshisekedi and the government of the Democratic Republic of the Congo; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Félix Tshisekedi is serving his second five-year term as president of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, inaugurated in January 2024 after the 2023 election, with that mandate scheduled to conclude in 2028. Recent developments include his May 2026 statements indicating openness to a third term via referendum if supported by voters, alongside Senate passage of a constitutional revision bill in June 2026 that could reset term limits. Opposition groups have protested these steps and formed alliances against them, yet Tshisekedi maintains control over key institutions amid the eastern conflict. These factors underpin the 93.5% implied probability on “No,” reflecting trader assessment that no constitutional, electoral, or political mechanism is positioned to remove him before the end of 2026.
