A lone transport bus is pictured in Kinshasa on February 16,2016 after a strike by bus, taxi and motorcycle companies was called by a coalition including dozens of political parties and civil society organisations allied to the two main opposition parties in parliament. Opposition leaders believe that DRC's President Kabila, in power since 2001, wants to get round the constitution to run for office again, after his final mandate expires in December. The protest was also timed to mark the February 16 anniversary of a bloody crackdown on the "Christian march" of 1992, when many thousands of Roman Catholics rallied in a bid to persuade then dictator Mobutu Sese Seko to open the way for democracy. / AFP / JUNIOR KANNAH (Photo credit should read JUNIOR KANNAH/AFP/Getty Images)
