Ikela
Ikela is a market town in Tshuapa, Democratic Republic of Congo, lying on the Tshuapa River east of Boende. Founded by Belgium in the early twentieth century as a trading post, it became an important local centre. It is the headquarters of the Ikela Territory. The town was largely destroyed in the Second Congo War, being for many years under siege from Congolese Rally for Democracy forces. Its population of 15,000 almost all fled, but around half have since returned to reconstruct it.

Transport In The Democratic Republic Of The Congo
Ground transport in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has always been difficult.

Furthermore, chronic economic mismanagement and internal conflict has led to serious under-investment over many years. On the other hand, the DRC has thousands of kilometres of navigable waterways, and traditionally water transport has been the dominant means of moving around approximately two-thirds of the country. Transport problems As an illustration of transport difficulties in the DRC, even before wars damaged the infrastructure, the so-called "national" route, used to get supplies to Bukavu from the seaport of Matadi, consisted of the following: *Matadi to Kinshasa – rail *Kinshasa to Kisangani – river boat *Kisangani to Ubundu – rail *Ubundu to Kindu – river boat *Kindu to Kalemie – rail *Kalemie to Kalundu (the lake po ...
