    Reacting to the reshuffle, Uganda's senior presidential adviser for media and public relations John Nagenda told IRIN on Thursday the move "is none of our business". "It does not concern us, it is for the Congolese to decide," he said. In Nairobi, DRC embassy official Deo Safari said Wamba's departure "casts a shadow on the negotiation process". He told IRIN the new leaders were "puppets" of Rwandan Vice- President Paul Kagame who was "hiding behind the rebellion to achieve his plan to occupy our country".
