The opposition coalition in Congo has
announced that the son of late opposition leader Etienne Tshisekedi will become
the group’s president.
The coalition late Thursday named Felix Tshisekedi its
head.
Etienne Tshisekedi’s death in early February came a month
after President Joseph Kabila’s party and the opposition signed an agreement
that called for new elections later this year in which Kabila will not run.
The 84-year-old Tshisekedi had founded his opposition
party in 1982 and was heavily involved in forming the coalition and pursuing
negotiations over the elections.
People recently took to the streets in Congo amid concerns
over what his death would mean for the agreement. Kabila stayed in power beyond
the end of his mandate in because of delayed elections that were meant to be
held in November.
