Rwanda has nothing to do with “RED Tabara”, Ndayishimiye must stop whining!

The Burundian government issued again another whining statement condemning Rwanda for having supported the last night attack of RED Tabara militia in the locality of Buringa, in the district of Gihanga, Province Bubanza, killing 9 people.

In many statements Rwanda has denied the baseless accusation of the Burundian regime, citing that Red Rabara is operating on DRC soil, this has been confirmed by Congolese authorities notable the Congolese minister of foreign affairs who confirmed that RED Tabara is indeed a Burundian militia operating in eastern DRC.

Burundian statement accusing Rwanda is false because the province of Bubanza where RED Tabara carried their attack is on the border with the RDC precisely in South Kivu and the question should be, what is the Burundian army doing there if it cannot prevent the RED_Tabara from crossing into the countries.

Burundian incompetent ruler Ndayishimiye seeks to please his godfather Tshisekedi by attributing all the Burundian curses to Rwanda. RED TABARA militia was created in 2011 and operates from the DRC in South Kivu, his baseless accusations forced him to close the border with Rwanda and put his oppressed and starved Burundians in danger.

As Tshisekedi cannot close the border with Rwanda, because the Congolese in Bukavu and Goma need Rwanda, he was able to convince Ndayishimiye to do so thinking that it would cause noise.

As proof of good faith, on July 30, 2021, the Rwanda Government handed over to the Burundian authorities 19 members of the RED Tabara rebellion who had illegally crossed the Rwandan border fleeing Burundi, on 29 September 2020.

RED Tabara has existed since 2011, and its official name was FRONABU TABARA after contesting the 2010 elections won by Pierre Nkurunziza. In 2011 during an interview with France 24, the then spokesperson for the Burundian Forces, Gen Gaudefroid Niyombare, dismissed this group as “insignificant”.

Ndayishimiye should resolve their insecurity problems instead of blaming Rwanda, Rwanda is not interested in this instability that is happening in Burundi.
