He returned to Canada on June 1, 2024.

Mwenengabo was born in 1975 in Zaire (the modern-day Democratic Republic of the Congo).

He later recounted having experienced discrimination as a result of his ethnicity, being "from one of the most marginalized and oldest indigenous community in the DRC."

2005

Mwenengabo's activism in the Congo led to him receiving death threats and, in 2005, Mwenengabo was arrested under the accusation of attempting to overthrow the government.

Afterwards, he began working for Amnesty International after fleeing to Uganda.

2009

In 2009, he immigrated to Canada, settling in Fredericton, New Brunswick, where he began working as an anthropology educator at the University of New Brunswick.

He has also worked for the East and Central African Association for Indigenous Rights, as well as the Centre communautaire Sainte-Anne, supporting recent Francophone immigrants to Canada.

2012

In 2012, Mwenengabo did a 48-day long hunger strike, raising awareness towards the federal government about human rights issues in the Congo.

While visiting family in the Congo on December, 16 2023, Mwenengabo was kidnapped in the city of Goma, Kivu Province.

He was accompanied by his brother and a friend, both of whom were also kidnapped but soon released.

Mwenengabo was held captive for several months, with his kidnappers demanding ransom from his family.

At first, his kidnappers sought US$15 million for his release, and provided his sons with photos showing Mwenengabo in a deteriorating state of health.

Mwenengabo's sons, along with provincial Green Party leader David Coon, advocated for the Canadian government to help in his release.

On June 1, 2024, Mwenengabo returned to Fredericton after being released to the Congolese National Intelligence Agency.
