The Democratic Republic of the Congo has seen more than 3 million people displaced from their home amidst growing violence in Kasai Province.

The UN High Commissioner For Refugees said that over 400,000 have been displaced in the last three months alone and that the unrest and violence caused by the ongoing ethno-political conflict could cause that number to rise dramatically.

bFM's Conor Knell spoke to Robert Patman about the crisis.
