Popular Congolese sports journalist Claude Kabulo Mwana Kabulo has taken charge of the Ministry of Sports.
He replaces Serge Nkonde.
Kabulo is one of the new faces after a Cabinet reshuffle by President Felix Tshisekedi.
Before the reshuffle, he was critical of his predecessor.
The Congolese soccer league has failed to take off due to insufficient government support.
Kabulo, a Caf media committee, also voiced concern over a $100, 000 cash donation that was given to boxer, Bakole, who never had an upcoming bill.
