DR Congo bans reporting on ex-President KabilaJoseph Kabila is back in DR Congo after voluntarily leaving the country in 2023Breaches of the ban could result in suspension, said the head of DR Congo's media regulator, Christian Bosembe. This comes after Kabila returned to the Democratic Republic of Congo last month amid heightened tensions between himself and the government, led by his successor, President Félix Tshisekedi. The Congolese government has banned the media from reporting on the activities of former President Joseph Kabila and interviewing members of his party. DR Congo's neighbour, Rwanda has been accused of backing the rebel group, but Kigali denies this. Since returning to DR Congo after two years of self-imposed exile, Kabila's party has been posting his activities online, which include visiting civil society groups and local religious representatives in Goma.
