UN Concerned Over DR Congo Jamming Radio Okapi Transmissions

The Congolese government suspended transmissions by Radio Okapi on November 30 after the broadcaster failed to submit its program schedule to the Superior Audiovisual and Communications Council (CSAC), which is mandatory under the country's legal system.
