Tshisekedi won the December 20-24 election by a landslide, but the vote was marred by widespread allegations of fraud, logistical shortcomings and disruptions.
The two opposition leaders, Martin Fayulu and Moise Katumbi, as well as others have called for a re-run, a demand authorities have dismissed.
"We are having a protest on January 20 because we will not accept the results, there was fraud everywhere and the elections must be annulled," said Katumbi in an online press briefing.
