Muzungu was Minister of Arts and Culture,[2] As such, he spoke out for promotion and protection of the cultural heritage of the Congo region.[3] In February 2005, he decided to reinstate the statue of King Leopold II. He noted that the beginning of the Congo Free State had been a time of some economic and social progress. He argued that people should recognize some positive aspects of the king as well as the negative. However, hours after the six-metre (20 ft) statue was installed near Kinshasa's central station, it was officially removed.[4] Muzungu resigned after the cabinet reshuffle of November 18, 2005.
During his ministry, he wrote Vagabond, a book that deals in depth with the phenomenon "shege" in Kinshasa.
