update
As the Democratic Republic of Congo prepares to hold elections on December 20, one analyst says incumbent President Felix Tshisekedi is poised be re-elected. The 23 other candidates vying for the presidency include Nobel Peace Prize winner Denis Mukwege and the runner-up in the 2018 presidential election, Martin Fayulu.
