This was good work.

The DRC has a lot of problems (to say the least) at the moment and has had for a while and this is pretty low priority in their scheme of things. Countries with weird residual TLDs for non-sovereign territory (e.g. .as or .ac) surely pay more attention to these trivial domains than anyone in the DRC can.

Which is all to say the amount of effort expended on any task, or the amount of knowledge brought to bear on a task, is only sometimes correlated with its value. Ever worked hard on a company that failed?

I felt I needed to put the first line in because my comment on your question could have been misinterpreted as criticism of the hacker.
