Burundian President Evariste Ndayishimiye is on the payroll of Tshisekedi – and that is why he has decided to close all borders with Rwanda. He accuses the Rwandan government of “harboring a Burundian armed group called Red Tabara”. But then this Red Tabara, which he accuses of threatening his security operations in the DRC, actually is not in Rwanda, and has never been.
When Ndayishimiye was the chairperson of the East African Community in different meetings, he signed different MoUs which had details that the rebel group RED Tabara is operating in eastern DRC.
On 17 Nov 2022 during the meeting of the head of state of the eastern African community held in Burundi, they agreed that foreign army groups such as FDLR, ADF and Red Tabara operating in eastern DRC must put down their arms and repatriate back into their countries and Ndayishimiye himself was among the signatories of that document.
A few days after the summit, on 23 Nov 2022 the heads of state of East African community convened in Angola, Luanda, in a bid to find a solution to the conflict and war in eastern DRC. In the final communique of the meeting, the heads of states again called the foreign rebel groups such operating in eastern DRC including RED Tabara to surrender and repatriate back in their countries, and the Burundian president’s signature appeared on the document – which was also a confirmation that Red Tabara operates in DRC. How does he then turn around to accuse Rwanda of “harboring Red Tabara.”
Furthermore, on 9 Feb 2023, Bujumbura hosted a meeting of the Chiefs of staff of army in the east African member states, and one of the resolution of their meeting was to order the foreign rebel groups such as RED Tabara of Burundi, ADF of Uganda, FDLR of Rwanda and FLN, among others operating in the eastern DRC, to immediately put down their arms and follow the process of repatriation. Again, the signature of Burundian army chief Gen. Prime Niyongabo appeared on the resolution as a confirmation that that Red Tabara operates in Eastern DRC.
A few days ago, the Congolese Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs exposed the absurdity of the Burundian president’s claims, by asserting that the RED-Tabara is indeed on Congolese territory. Everyone knows this, including Ndayishimiye
For those who don’t know, the RED-Tabara rebels that had the misfortune of setting foot in Rwanda were all arrested, and repatriated to Burundi in the presence of journalists from around the world.
Ndayishimiye who was given a huge amount of cash by Tshisekedi to collaborate with him in his efforts trying to destabilize Rwanda, also has adopted the Congolese’s bad habits of blaming Rwanda, or turning it into a scapegoat for each and every on of their failures.
Ndayishimiye too will fail!
