Brazzaville

Brazzaville is the capital and largest city of the Republic of the Congo and is located on the Congo River. As of the 2007 census, it had a population of 1,373,382. The projection of the CNSEE (national statistics centre) shows an increase to 1.7 million by 2015, but the projection was made before 2007 and based on a lower estimate of the population (1.26 million) than recorded in the census. The United Nations Population Division estimate for 2014 is 1.827 million. The populous city of Kinshasa (more than 10 million inhabitants in 2014), capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, lies across the Congo River from Brazzaville. Together with Kinshasa, the combined conurbation of Kinshasa-Brazzaville has thus about 12 million inhabitants (although significant political and infrastructure challenges prevent the two cities from functioning with any meaningful connection). Over a third of the population of the Republic of Congo lives in the capital, and it is home to 40% of non-agricultural employment. It is also a financial and administrative capital.

    Morning Light

    by: Brazzaville

    I’m afraid of you
    You make life seem brand new
    We stay up late at night
    Forget the world outside
    And it’s been a long time
    It’s been a long time
    Since I’ve seen the morning light
    It’s been a long time
    It’s been a long time
    And that’s alright (2x)
    You read you poetry
    And pour me cups of tea
    And in the candle light
    I’m lost inside your eyes
    And it’s been a long time…
    Sometimes I feel all alone
    With millions of folks around me
    But I know that I’ve got a home
