Show Notes

Félix Tshisekedi is President of the Democratic Republic of Congo. It’s a country known to be one of the lungs of the world, but also wracked by conflict. The president sat down with the BBC’s Victoria Uwonkunda after more than three years in office. He recognises that DR Congo’s natural habitat is vital to the world’s environment. But he says it would be unfair to those in his country living in poverty not to use its natural resources. He explains why he doesn’t want Rwanda to be part of the fight against M23 militants. And says that relations with President Paul Kagame are still cold. Everybody needs time to relax. So, who does President Tshisekedi support on the football field? #AfricaDaily
