Following the election, an 87-seat Senate was elected by District Assembly members, and the two chambers elected a president (Joseph Kasa-Vubu of ABAKO) together.
The song itself was an appeal for unity in the post-independence Congo, both through its combined use of the languages of Belgian and French Congos, as well as the appeal for unity amongst Congolese political factions, including Asoreco, ABAKO, CONAKAT, Cartel, Front Commun, MNC, PDC, UGECO, ABAZI and PSA which all participated in the Round Table talks and which are all explicitly mentioned in the song.
