Alliance of Builders of Kongo

Alliance of Builders of Kongo

Alliance of Builders of Kongo "(French, Alliance des Bâtisseurs du Kongo)" is a Congolese political party. It uses "ABAKO" as an intentional initialization for the party's name to pay homage to the former ABAKO party of the 1950's and 1960's.

The party won three National Assembly seats in the 2006 general election.
