Refugees tell of violence, political strife in Burundi
(The Christian Science Monitor) Why the militia came for Nolasque Nduwimana, a history teacher at a girls’ Catholic boarding school in Burundi, was obvious.
“Yes, I supported the opposition,” he said. “Why should that mean I should be killed?”
Nduwimana learned that his name was on a hit list drawn up by local ruling party officials. He made up his mind to flee but wanted to finish marking his students’ exams first.
