DR Congo transport minister sacked
2007-10-06
The Democratic Republic of Congo's transport minister has been sacked in the wake of a plane crash that killed at least 51 people in Kinshasa, the Congolese capital.

A spokesman for Joseph Kabila, the country's president, said Remy Henry Kuseyo was dismissed "due to his inability to reform the aviation sector". Friday's decision was approved by the cabinet a day after the cargo plane, which had a Russian crew, ploughed into a crowded Kinshasa suburb. The aeroplane, an Antonov AN-26 car belonging to the Congolese airline Africa One, crashed shortly after take-off.
