	Mobutu
		Mobutu, whose speech was given on the rear terrace of the presidential bungalow, pledged to pursue a transition toward democracy that has been stalled for six years.
		Mobutu, who seized power in a military coup in 1965, has never been elected to the presidency, and Zaire is the only country in Central Africa not to have organized national elections since a wave of democratization swept much of Africa in the early 1990s.
		Mobutu's deep unpopularity forced him to move to a riverboat at the turn of the decade, and finally, in 1991, to his village in northern Zaire, where his grip on day-to-day affairs slowly but inevitably declined.
