Description
Workers in DR Congo's capital Kinshasa are racing to finish sports facilities ahead of the 9th edition of the Francophone Games, which begin with the opening ceremony on July 28. Some 3,000 athletes from about 30 French-speaking countries are set to arrive for the so-called Jeux de la Francophonie.“Ordinarily all sites will be ready by 23 July," says the Minister of Communication and government spokesman, Patrick Muyaya. "The essential is done, we are waiting for the Games," he adds. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
