@Refugees#BurundiPeace "From 2016 to today, following the improvement of security in #Burundi, 100,025+ Burundians repatriated themselves in 2016, 68,000+ until Aug.15, 2017 & 7549+ officially repatriated after the tripartite of August 29-31, 2017" ikiriho.org/2017/11/08/rap…
@BurundiGov denounces an uncanny chain of events and the likely involvement of #Belgium embassy authorities in a case of "disappearance" of Burundian drummers, recently reported by Swiss newspaper "La Liberté". 1/n presidence.gov.bi/wp-content/upl…
2/n Key elements :
- A group of drummers were granted the *NORMALLY HIGHLY SCRUTINIZED* Schengen visa through the #Belgium embassy
- for the purpose of representing #Burundi at a cultural event in #Swiss
- WITHOUT any supporting documents from #Burundi-an authorities
3/n @BurundiGov denounces steps seemingly taken to circumvent local authorities involvement in an event representing #Burundi's image on the international stage, with the complicity of #Belgium embassy personnel.
No surprise,
Posing at, attending #Burundi radicals opposition meetings, @RFI's @rutwesdras confirms (again) relentless anti-ruling party bias that has been noticed throughout @RFI's coverage of #Burundi

or are you planning a full article on this matter ?

Video testimonies of refugees COMING BACK to #Burundi were completely ignored by the same medium
🤔but today, -written- refugees testimonies suddenly matter again to @RFI@AFPAfrica@rutwesdras

: "while the Nkurunziza government has accused regional actors (aka #Rwanda) of meddling to fuel conflict in the country, these allegations have remained largely false."
It is now (very) safe to ignore @issafrica from credible knowledge sources on #Burundi

Let's recall this: #Burundi has showed 35 pieces of evidence to the @_icglr accusing #Rwanda of fueling #BurundiCrisis,
The @_icglr is the same organ which investigated on #Rwanda's accusations against #Burundi, of hosting Interhamwe (No proof found)

However, #Rwanda conveniently refused to allow @_icglr to investigate #Burundi's claims (which, again, are already backed by 35 pieces of evidences.)
Apparently, this is enough for @priyal_singh & @issafrica to conclude that the claims are false.

"A palpable sense of delight could be felt at the ceremony held to mark the end of the camp decommissioning process. "
The process of decommissioning #Burundi’s IDP (internally displaced persons ) Camps is raising #Hope
