The influential Catholic Church in the Democratic Republic of Congo says there was a clear winner of Sunday's presidential election based on results it had seen.
Bishops urged the authorities to be truthful and announce the results soon.
The Church had thousands of election monitors and some had reported irregularities.
The electoral commission said the announcement of the result, expected on Sunday, could be delayed.
The head of the commission, Corneille Nangaa, said counting centres were still waiting for more than 80% of voting tallies to be submitted by local polling stations.
