    Kabila’s chief SADC military ally, Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe, told reporters in Pretoria on Tuesday that he expected the conflict would end before the end of the year. “I think all of us have learnt our lesson in the Congo,” Reuters quoted him as saying. Meanwhile, Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo was quoted by news agencies as saying on Wednesday that his country could provide peacekeepers for the DRC under the “right conditions.”
