The National Conference of Catholic Bishops has called for the Independent National Electoral Commission to resign following the mismanagement of last year’s presidential and parliamentary elections.

The head of the National Conference of Bishops (CENCO), Bishop Nicolas Djomo, said during a press conference in Kinshasa on Monday that the Catholic Church in the Democratic Republic of Congo is determined to campaign for the recently enacted U.S. law on ‘conflict minerals’, so that it is applied in the DRC.
