Democratic Republic of Congo President Felix Tshisekedi faces off against more than two dozen rivals in a general election on Wednesday. His rivals include old foes such as Martin Fayulu, who came.
Tshisekedi, 60, son of Congo's late opposition leader Etienne Tshisekedi, came to power in a disputed 2018 election buoyed by a power-sharing alliance with former president Joseph Kabila. The alliance unravelled soon after, so he joined forces with other Congolese political heavyweights including economy minister Vital Kamerhe and former vice president Jean-Pierre Bemba.
