DR Congo to hold elections

Shandary is the permanent secretary of the People's Party for Reconstruction and Democracy, the PPRD. How crucial is this election for the DRC's future? To discuss this we are joined in studio by Human Rights activist and Spokesperson for the Congolese Diaspora in South Africa, Jean Bwasa. For more news, visit: sabcnews.com
