Radio STation reopened after 20 days



The Manano community radio has, happily, been restarted after 20 days of radio silence. Apparently the radio station had been shut down illegally by Mr. Justin Mussa Findi, for those 20 days. According to Katenga's broadcast regulators the radio station was shut down without following appropriate procedures. The radio station officially began to rebroadcast immediately after they received the Katenga decision. The shut down was perpetrated by Justin Findi, allegedly for the radio station calling upon teachers to go into a strike. This however is in direct violation of the DRC's laws of freedom of press.
