Minembwe is made up of localities whose majority group is Babembe, Bafuliiru, Banyindu, and Bashi. All of these localities have been erected in high mountains of fizi. In 1999, Minembwe was established as territory alongside Bunyakiri in Kalehe territory.
The two territories were established under the administration of the region by the Rassemblement congolais pour la Democratie(RCD Goma) a militia group in the years 1999-2000. The recognition of these two territorial entities is a source of tension between the various components of the Transitional Government at the beginning of 2006.[1][2]
