Supporters of DR Congo president Felix Tshisekedi celebrate his re-election in front of his party's headquarters in Kinshasa after provisional results declared by the country's electoral commission showed that Tshisekedi had won 73 percent of the vote. Tshisekedi, 60, first came to power in January 2019 after a disputed election that many observers said he had in fact lost, and the opposition have dismissed the latest vote in the central African country as a "sham".
