Kinshasa

NPR's Jennifer Ludden reports from Zaire's capital Kinshasa that many people there are increasingly anxious about the refusal of anti-government rebels to agree to a ceasefire. Kinshasa has long been the center of the non-violent opposition to President Mobutu Sese Seko. As the rebels steadily advance, many residents of the capital say the guerrillas should agree to a truce and allow previously scheduled elections to go ahead.
