Nearly four months after his inauguration, President Felix Tshisekedi's of Democratic Republic of Congo   is reportedly facing many challenges mounted with appointment of Prime Minister Sylvestre Ilunga, an ally of the former president.

Sylvester Ilunga was appointed on Monday in the Democratic Republic of Congo under a political agreement between President Felix Tshisekedi and his predecessor.

Since Tshisekedi became president, some analysts say he's struggling to maintain political control.

He's also inherited many of former President Joseph Kabila’s economic and social problems.
