He also declared that the government and the governors of the country\'s 11 provinces had all resigned as from Sunday. \"From now on, ministerial departments will be led by secretary generals, the governors of the 11 provinces will be replaced by director generals and no governor should leave the country before handing over to his successor,\" Tshisekedi said.
