Kinshasa, Apr 8 (IBNS): Congolese President Joseph Kabila has appointed Bruno Tshibala as the new Prime Minister of the nation on Saturday, reports said.

The former Prime Minister Samy Badibanga resigned on Friday, two days after the Congolese President promised to appoint a new Prime Minister of the power-sharing government.
