Congolese opposition leader’s body returning home



KINSHASHA:  The body of longtime Congolese opposition leader Etinne Tshisekedi is returning home after more than two years.

Tshisekedi died in February 2017 in Belgium due to medical complications. Family members accused the former government of Joseph Kabila of blocking the arrival of the body due to political reasons.

Now that Etinne Tshisekedi’s son is the president of Congo, his body is back home. (Agencies)
