THE CASE AGAINST THE FORMER DEFENSE MINISTER OF BURUNDI, GENERAL CYRILLE NDAYIRUKIYE AND 27 EX-SECURITY OFFICERS ALLEGED TO HAVE CARRIED OUT A COUP AGAINST THE SELF IMPOSED PRESIDENT OF BURUNDI, PIERRE NKURUNZIZA HAVE STARTED.

Pierre Nkurunziza of Burundi has caused so much pains to the people of Burundi as a result of his refusal to step down after completing his tenure as the President of Burundi which the constitution of the country specified very clearly. Unfortunately some military officers in Burundi allegedly planned a coup against  Pierre Nkurunziza which later failed and now this group of officers including the former defense minister of Burundi, General Cyrille Ndayirukiye are being tried in the court of law for their alleged involvement in the May 2015 coup attempt to remove President Pierre Nkurunziza. If Pierre Nkurunziza, the self imposed President of Burundi has respect and regard for the rule of law as specified by the constitution of Burundi, there would have been no need for some military officers trying to plan a coup as alleged or people fighting and killing each other in the country (Burundi).

Therefore, we (Viewers Corner) are appealing again to the African Union (A.U) and the United Nations to take action against Pierre Nkurunziza who claimed to be the President of Burundi, he is there illegally and these officers being tried at the moment may not get a fair trial. Once again, we (Viewers Corner) are asking the Burundi court to let these officers have full legal representation at the court of law and also let there be a fair and honest trial/verdict.
