The Makongo River (French: Rivière Makongo) is a river of the Democratic Republic of the Congo. It is a left tributary of the Bomokandi River, which in turn is a tributary of the Uele River.
The Makongo flows through the province of Bas-Uélé in a generally NNE direction to its confluence with the Bomokandi. The river rises to the south of the RP415 road. It roughly defines the boundary between the Ganga Dingila Health Zone to the west and the Poko Health Zone to the east. It passes the village of Makongo on its left bank. It enters the Bomokandi to the northwest of Digili.[1][2] It flows through the Bambesa Territory.[3]
